Smoked Trout Pate'


Served on purple endive, or....


on green endive,.....
either way, both are delicious and so pretty!
Make a large platter and arrange both colors together,
or serve as a starter to any meal.

The lemon zest is the key to this Smoked Trout Pate'
it gives a light brightness to the smoky richnes of the pate'.

As Always,
ENJOY!
