Trout packed in extra virgin olive oil with dill. The fillet is flavourful and has a buttery-texture.
Serving tip: the soft texture makes this ideal to enjoy with crusty bread, some shallots and a squeeze of lemon.
About the fish: the rainbow trout is farmed close to the cannery and hand filleted whilst fresh by skilled artisans.
About the cannery: they are canned in Latvia by the artisans at Diplomats, a renowned tinned fish brand, with a history dating back to 1907. The fish is canned using 100% artisanal methods in its state of the art cannery in the seaside village of Engure, on the shore of the Gulf of Riga. Diplomats is noted for its high quality smoked sprats and has built its reputation upon them. Its signature is taking traditional Latvian cuisine - smoked sprats, salmon, trout and herring - and introducing elements from international cuisine to give their recipes a novel spin.
