Smoked Trout Salad with Herb & Horseradish Dressing
Smoked trout tops heart-shaped watercress and mixed greens tossed with creamy horseradish dressing, creating a wonderful appetizer salad.
Ingredients
-
1 head butterhead lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces
-
4 cups bite-size pieces watercress, or arugula (about 1 bunch), tough stems removed
-
1 cup mache, or mixed salad greens (see Ingredient Note)
-
Herb & Horseradish Dressing, (recipe follows)
-
4 ounces smoked trout fillet, skin removed
-
4 scallions, sliced
-
1 tablespoon capers, rinsed (optional)
Directions
1.
Gently toss lettuce, watercress (or arugula) and mache (or mixed greens) in a large bowl. Toss with Herb & Horseradish Dressing to coat. Divide the greens among 4 plates. Flake 1 ounce trout over each salad and sprinkle with scallions and capers (if using).
Tip:
Ingredient note: Mache ("mosh"), also known as lamb's lettuce or corn salad, is a tangy green that resembles watercress. Popular in Europe, it is enjoyed in the first salads of spring. Look for it in specialty stores, large supermarkets and farmers' markets.

Cream Cheese Pound Cake
Pound cake got its name from the original formulation: a pound each of sugar, flour, butter and eggs. Just the thought of it is enough to raise your cholesterol. Our version calls for half whole-wheat flour, less sugar, a modest amount of butter and loses quite a few egg yolks. To keep it rich we moisten the cake with reduced-fat cream cheese and buttermilk. It is every bit as delicious as the original, with only a third of the calories and fat.
