Recipe: Tina’s Smoked Trout Salad

Recipe: Tina's Trout Salad

I got this recipe from Tina a couple of years ago. In Denmark, we eat a lot of smoked fish, and this smoked trout salad would be an obvious choice for lunch, served with Danish rye bread or Tina’s Hungry Bird Eats Nordic crisps. It’s also great as part of a seafood-centered grazing board, or as a delicious appetizer.

Notes

Tina always has Greek yogurt in her fridge, and when she’s cooking, she would often use yogurt instead of sour cream or mayonnaise, as she likes the flavor and the lighter texture better.

This recipe yields enough trout salad for 4 persons as a snack, or for 2 persons as lunch, served with your choice of bread or crackers.

You can use smoked salmon instead of trout if you wish, and even other kinds of smoked fish will work.

Ninja Air Fryer 4-in-1 Pro
$99.99

I’ve had really good experiences with the Ninja air fryers. They're easy to use, the quality feels solid, and the results are consistently great. I’ve had really good experiences with the Ninja air fryers. They’re easy to use, the quality feels solid, and the results are consistently great. I like that you don’t have to fuss around with settings to get good food out of it. Vegetables turn out crisp without drying out, and chicken comes out juicy with a nice golden crust. It’s one of those kitchen gadgets that actually lives up to the hype and ends up being used all the time.

Caraway Nonstick Ceramic Frying Pan (2.7 qt, 10.5")
$115.00

Caraway recently launched on Amazon, and their cookware is as pretty as it is practical. The Caraway 10.5" Nonstick Ceramic Frying Pan is one of those pieces you’ll find yourself reaching for all the time, whether it’s for eggs, sautéed veggies, or pancakes on the weekend. I especially love it in Perracotta, which adds such a nice pop of color in the kitchen.

The naturally non-stick surface means you can cook with less oil or butter, and cleanup is quick with just a wipe or light wash. Like all of Caraway’s cookware, the pan is free from PTFE, PFOA, PFAS, lead, and cadmium, so you don’t have to worry about toxins sneaking into your food.

It works on all stovetops, gas, electric, and induction, and it’s oven-safe up to 550ºF, which makes it super versatile. Durable, easy to use, and so good-looking, this is a pan that really makes everyday cooking feel a little more special.
