Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, white beans, tomatoes and shredded mackerel or trout. In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, mustard and a little salt and pepper. Add the oil a little at a time, whisking constantly so that the dressing emulsifies and thickens. Season to taste.

  2. Step 2

    Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Add more freshly ground black pepper, if desired. If flying, pack a serving into a plastic container.

Very tasty-- smoked trout makes it. Probably need sturdier lettuce.

Had a smoked mackerel to be used and found this recipe. Since I were not flying but quarantined, I added scallions and garlic. Also some lemon juice. The proportions seemed to be off: 1 head lettuce, 1/2 cup fish, 1 TBSP vinegar, 1/4 cup oil? Need to readjust the taste as you go, but it is a good recipe to start.
