I have some trout left over from last night. As I was picking through
it getting out those danged pesky little bones. I was thinking I would
like it in some kind of sauce, maybe a white sauce, then I thought of
lobster thermador.
GIMF and I found some lobster thermador recipes. Never having made it
myself, I checked out several recipes. They were almost identical. It
starts with a basic white sauce made with white wine, milk, tarragon,
shallots, Dijon mustard and parmesan cheese. I decided to eliminate
the shallots, because I don't have any, and the parmesan cheese
because it just doesn't sound good to me with trout, and I thought it
would be overpowering anyway.

So, after I got the pesky %$# bones out of the trout I assembled the
sauce ingredients. I did add more milk to get the full two cups, just
got ahead of myself with the picture.

I'm going to spare you the step by step of a white sauce. I ended up
with a nice thick sauce. I did use some tarragon I have hanging around
drying.

I have some puff pastry shells in the freezer so I baked up a couple.
The directions said not to use a microwave, understandable, or a
toaster oven, not understandable.
Sorry, I'm not heating up my oven for a couple of dinky shells. Into
the toaster oven they went and turned out beautifully.

Put some sauce in the pastry shell, added trout, more sauce and topped
with a sprinkling of trout and a little fresh ground black pepper.
This and a glass of white wine mmmm gotta love leftovers.

Thank you cybercat, though most times I feel like I'm still in
elementary school.
