-------- ------------ --------------------------------
6 Serving size rainbow trout
Or other locally available
Trout, pan-dressed
1/2 c Lemon juice
4 ts Salt
1/4 ts Pepper
1/4 c Sesame seed
3/4 c Butter or margarine

With a sharp knife, make 3 light slashes on each side
of fish, without cutting flesh too deep.
In a 13" by 9" baking pan, mix lemon juice, salt and
pepper. Add fish and turn over to coat with marinade.
Cover; refrigerate at least 3 hours turning
occasionally.
In a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat, toast sesame
seed until golden, stirring and shaking pan
occasionally. Add butter or margarine and heat until
melted.
Place fish on rack in broiling pan. Drain marinade
from baking pan into sesame seed mixture. Preheat
broiler if manufacturer directs.
Broil fish about 5 minutes on each side, basting
frequently with sesame seed mixture.
Test fish for doneness with a fork. Trout are cooked
when their flesh flakes easily.
With pancake turners or spatulas, lift fish carefully
onto warm platter and spoon hot juices over it. The
Good Housekeeping Illustrated Cookbook, Hearst Books,
NY, 1980. Carving a Whole Fish With a sharp knife, cut
the top side of fish into servings, just down to the
bone.
Carefully ease cooked meat away from the rib bones;
lift one section and place it on warmed plate. Repeat
with remaining sections.
Lift off all bones and carve the lower section in the
same way. (If the fish is stuffed, remove stuffing
after cutting top of fish and before removing bones to
serve lower portion.)
