Rainbow trout roe on blini with sour cream, minced red onion, and capers. Roe is often thought of as being only useful for garnishing a dish. It may be time to change the narrative. This rainbow trout roe is delightful. It has a very nice crisp texture and delightfully fresh flavor. I am looking forward to incorporating it into a few more dishes.  Thank you, Riverence , for the great roe to work with. As always, your comments or questions are welcome. Until next time, Bon Appetit Y'all! Chef Leslie Bartosh #Roe , #Rainbow_Trout_Roe , #USA_Trout , #USA_Roe , #Riverence
