Hello, many years ago I had a complete set of Cordon Bleu cookbooks, unfortunately now lost. I utilised a baked trout recipe a number of times; the fish was stuffed with a rice mixture and then baked, under foil, in milk and sherry. I have searched for this recipe a number of times to no avail; I am hopeful that you can provide me with this recipe, or a link to it.
Thank you in anticipation, Peter
Peter, sorry I couldn’t find reference to the recipe you mentioned. During my three terms at the Paris Cordon Bleu school, we made a trout dish stuffed with mushrooms, but not with rice. We also made a dish with Sea Bass, salmon cubes and rice baked inside pastry (Sea Bass Coulibiac) https://www.gdaysouffle.com/my-paris-sea-bass-coulibiac-tomatoes-stuffed-with-broccio-cheese/ I also looked through my copy of ‘Le Cordon Bleu at Home’ and I only saw a recipe for Trout Stuffed with Sorrel. Of course, if you google “trout stuffed with rice”, lots of different recipes come up. However, I’m now intrigued- I’d love to do a trout recipe soon! Good luck!
I love this recipe, Fran! I also love the introduction story – I had no idea Hemingway spent a lot of time in Spain, though I knew he was in France for the time.
