Grilled Trout+

Picked up some whole trout last night from Costco (only $4/lb… can’t beat that) and some miso salad dressing to marinate them with.

Before tossing the fish on the grill (on cedar planks!), I started some somewhat-chopped fingerling potatoes that I’d drizzled with olive oil and coated with rosemary.  After about a half-hour head start on the potatoes, I added some mushrooms and tossed on the fish. Diana’s mom uses Miso Paste, which ends up with a much stronger flavor. The salad dressing performed decently, but next time I think I’ll make the trip to the asian supermarket to get miso paste.

As soon as the fish were off, I tossed on a foil packet full of sliced plumbs and honey. By the time we were done devouring the fish (I love it when it just slides off all the bones perfectly) and the potatoes, the plums were pretty much liquified into syrup… which we proceded to use as a topping for some vanilla ice cream.

It was a pretty solid end to the weekend.
