Pink trout are a beautiful little fish that belong to the same family as salmon, but are generally much smaller.
Although it is related to the salmon, it has a much milder flavour that is nutty and a little sweet. It has a luscious texture and feels really rich, and is packed with omega-3 fats.
Trout is fattier than other fish, this fattiness gives it a richer flavour and helps it hold up well to different styles of cooking.
