A member mentioned that its been too long since a "PPP" (palatte pleasing post) was made, so Ive whipped up a simple recipe which proved to be a hit on the boat yesterday (especially when the fishing is slow and Willierower wont shut up about the carp he's been catching)
"Steelhead sandwiches"...
Simple,affordable, excellent..(seems I read that on a HUGE bill I got from some company lately...this recipe lives up to the words)
A variation from yesterdays fare, but good none-the-less
Merinate some fresh steel or coho in a plastic bag for a couple days in the fridge. Olive oil, salt, dillweed, garlic (juicy garlic!) lemon, black pepper and some balsamic vinegar.
BBQ the fish as you would, and have it for dinner...good stuff, but take the leftovers and put them in the fridge overnight.
When you wake up to go fishing really early in the AM, try not to look at willierowers gift "carploaf" in the fridge and take the steelhead or coho leftovers out and bone them gently crumble into big flakes/chunks. Add minced garlic, mayo (a little lighter than your used to) and a diced onion. To this add a couple tablespoons of balsamic vinegar and mix it all gently so the fish doesnt turn to mush (or resemble the carploaf that the cats are struggling to eat)
Soften a sourdough bagette in the microwave for a few seconds and slice it open. Layer the top with thin sliced provalone or havarti and thin sliced cucumbers on the bottom, this will keep the mayo and vinegar from seeping into the bread before they are eaten. Add the fish mixture (sliced avacado is good too in this sandwich) Fold the top bread over the bottom and slice into two inch sandwiches which are easy to handle on the boat.
Bon-apetite
