Trout and Buckwheat Salad Recipe
Trout and Buckwheat Salad

by Hillary Tonken

It's possible that you've never tried smoked fish or buckwheat noodles before --but why not now?

Not only is it a fantastic meal, but it's perfect if you're watching your weight. Smoked trout is a low-calorie food (averaging about 90 calories per serving), and buckwheat noodles are fat- and cholesterol-free, as well as a good source of nutrients like manganese, lean protein, carbohydrates and thiamine.

Makes 4 servings

Trout and Buckwheat Salad Recipe Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided

8 ounces buckwheat noodles

1 bunch scallions, minced

1/3 cup cilantro leaves

2 small seedless cucumbers, cut into ribbons using a vegetable peeler

6-8 ounces smoked trout, chunked

1 clove garlic, minced

2 tablespoons Mirin wine

4 tablespoons soy sauce

Salt and ground black pepper, if desired

Trout and Buckwheat Salad Recipe Directions

Cook the buckwheat noodles according to package directions.

Drain then rinse under cold water.

Toss cooled noodles with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and reserve in a large mixing bowl.

Combine the remaining ingredients in another bowl.

Right before serving, toss with the noodles and season with salt and black pepper, if desired.

NOTE: This recipe works quite well with plain cooked trout or salmon too.
