Heart

Heart of Trout is firm muscle for thin grilling or gentle braising. Mild iron note when fresh. A nose-to-tail piece. As a heart section of offal, portion for even cooking and clear labelling. Keep trout heart iced until cooking; pat dry for browning, and stop when just opaque. Pan-frying, smoking, curing, and baking suit the cut. Season with salt, acid, and fat that frame fine pink-to-white flake.
