I was checking out the salmon at BJ's when I realized that the stack of fish on the left side was Steelhead Trout. It looked very much like salmon fillets (but a bit less fatty) and would have fooled me if I didn't read the label. Of course I wanted to try it.


For a first time tasting, I wanted an unadulterated version, just salt and pepper. The texture is very similar to salmon but lighter and sweeter. We both loved it and highly recommend it. I'm sure it would work with any salmon recipe but don't put too much on it. You'll miss it's wonderful natural flavor.
