Ireland: Speckled Trout in Herbed Cream

Ireland is known around the world as an angler's paradise, and one of the most prized fish of its rivers and lakes -- besides the kingly salmon -- is the beautiful brown or speckled trout, which has haunted Irish waters for millennia. The rainbow trout is a more recent import, but it works as well in this dish as the brown trout does.

This treatment of the fly-fisher's favorite quarry invokes two other favorite tropes of Irish cuisine -- the country's incomparable cream, and the succulent wild herbs of the countryside.
