  • Yield

    Makes 12 servings

Ingredients

11 ounces smoked trout (about 3 fillets), coarsely flaked
1 medium Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored, cut into matchstick-size strips
1 cup finely chopped celery (about 2 stalks)
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh chives
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon (or more) finely grated peeled fresh horseradish or prepared horseradish sauce
1 loaf thinly sliced brown bread (such as Westphalian-style pumpernickel), lightly toasted, cut into triangles

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Mix trout, apple, celery, and chives in large bowl to blend. Whisk sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon horseradish in small bowl to blend.
