Préparation
Cucumber salad
Thinly slice or shave the cucumber
Lightly salt, let sit briefly, then squeeze out excess water
Fold in skyr, linseed oil, and dill
Chill. The salad should stay fresh and clean, not heavy.
Pan-fried trout on the skin
Pat fillets dry
Season the skin side well with salt
Heat pan to medium
Add oil to the pan
Place trout skin-side down. Do not flip. Do not move. Do not press.
Reduce heat slightly
Let the fillet gently cook through. The flesh will turn lighter from bottom to top.
Basting
Once the skin is crispy, add butter to the pan, let it foam, and repeatedly baste the fish with hot butter. The top cooks gently through the butter without losing its sear.
