SMOKED TROUT AND GARLIC CREAM ON RYE TOASTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut 1/2 inch off the top of garlic to expose the cloves, and transfer bulb to a piece of parchment-lined foil. Drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Wrap, and bake until soft, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Unwrap, and let cool.
• Meanwhile, cut 36 rounds of bread using a 1 3/4-inch cookie cutter. Transfer to a baking sheet. Bake until golden around edges, about 20 minutes. Let cool.
• Squeeze garlic into a food processor. Blend until almost smooth. Add cream, 1 tablespoon oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Spread 1/2 teaspoon garlic cream onto each toast, and top with trout and cornichons. Serve immediately.

CURRIED SMOKED TROUT TOASTS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red onion, jalapeño, garlic and curry powder and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring, until they begin to lose their shape, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the smoked trout and season with salt and pepper.
• Arrange the bread slices on a baking sheet and brush both sides with vegetable oil (use 1 tablespoon oil per slice); season with salt and pepper. Broil the bread, turning once, until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stir half of the herbs into the trout mixture, then spoon onto the toasts. Toss the fennel with the remaining chopped herbs, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, the fennel fronds and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Serve with the toasts.

RYE TOASTS WITH SMOKED TROUT AND SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Cut the fish into 1/4-inch dice. In a bowl, combine the trout, creme fraiche, lemon juice, capers, red onion and parsley. Season with salt and lemon to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 4 hours.
• Heat oven to 180 degrees. Cut the crusts off the bread and brush both sides with melted butter. Heat a heavy skillet over medium heat. Working in two batches, brown the bread on both sides, about one minute per side. Remove and keep warm in oven.
• In a bowl, whisk eggs, remaining melted butter, cream and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Heat a nonstick skillet over low heat. Add eggs and cook, stirring continuously with a spatula, until just set and no longer runny. Remove from heat, add chives and transfer the skillet to oven to keep warm.
• Place a slice of toast on each plate. Divide trout mixture among toasts, spreading it to make an even platform for the scrambled eggs. Spoon the eggs in the center and top with a small spoonful of roe. Serve immediately.
