SERVING
Mild taste and firm, juicy fillet
Rainbow trout provides a mild and clean taste with firm, juicy meat that withstands both pan-frying, grilling and light smoking. The fillet stays nice in slices, and the moderate fat content makes it easy to succeed with – from everyday dinner to raw marinated starter. The image shows a chef filleting the fish as we deliver it: ready for precise heat treatment.
ORIGIN
From the Pacific to Norway
Rainbow trout was originally widespread along the Pacific coast of North America, from Alaska in the north to the border areas between California and Mexico in the south. However, the species has long since been introduced to almost all continents and a number of new countries, including Norway.
