Smoked Trout and Cucumber Salad Appetizer

Smoked Trout Salad

We were given several pieces of freshly smoked trout. While the flavor was good it was strong. So what do you do with smoked trout? Well I didn't want to waste it so I created this.Lots of flavors meld together with the smoky flavor of the trout and the crisp freshness of the cucumber.

Ingredient list

2 medium cucumbers, peeled, halved with the seeds removed and sliced thin

1/4 cup mayo

1/4 cup vanilla yogurt

1/4 cup sour cream

1 Tbl lemon juice

2 Tbs fresh or dried chopped dill

salt

Olive oil

Smoked trout, about 1 lb

4 scallions sliced thin

pepper for seasoning

In a medium bowl break up the trout into large flakes. Lightly toss with just enough olive oil to coat and make it look shiny. Add in the scallions and pepper to taste. Toss again to mix evenly and set aside.

In another bowl mix the mayo, sour cream, and yogurt together. Blend in the lemon juice and dill. Add salt to taste. Stir in the cucumbers. 

To serve: Place the cucumber mix on a large platter or individual plates. Top with the trout. Serve with crackers or your favorite bread.
