@daywithmei: Tinned Fish Talk Ep. 5 🎣 Trader Joe’s Smoked Trout $3.99 10/10 ⭐ I rate this super high because my purchase history has gotta be evidence this tin is better than the rest. Definitely biased as this trout is sort of my “gateway drug” into trying more canned seafood. Taste 🔟 I really enjoy the moderate smoky flavor from this. The best comparison I have is bacon or ham, and I tend to cook with it in a similar way where I would add bacon flavor. Some people might criticize that this is in canola oil, but I find canola to be very neutral and unobtrusive. No complaints from me. Texture 🔟 I love that it’s firm, flaky, and not too soft, definitely have had other fish disintegrate in my pasta. The versatility is where this shines, it can be mixed into a dip, flaked on top of toast, folded into an omelet, endless possibilities! Price 🔟 This is arguably the most compelling attribute of this canned trout. It’s less than half the price of most smoked trout tins available online. The low price makes this ideal for someone to buy as a low-risk introduction to the world of tinned fish.
