Clean and Cook A Rainbow Trout With Chef Mike From Wüsthof 

I don't understand all the hate comments here. I found this tutorial perfectly useful and my trout turned out delicious! Thanks, Chef Mike!

This is a very classic method of cooking a rainbow and you presented it very well. Thanks. When a trout is to small to fillet, this is the perfect way to season, cook and present.

I just caught my first trout today and I'm going to try this. It looks incredible!

breaks my heart seeing him remove the crusty goodness

omg dude lost me when he took the bone out last... took the best part with it! the crispiness!

Watching this vid, is making me hungry for rainbow trout - yum yum.

This is the best method of cooking and deboning I trout I have ever seen, it works great and is so easy, thank you.

Great job, this is primarily what I catch locally so it's good to see other methods of cooking them. Looked delicious, I'll give it a try.

This is my GO-TO recipe for trout. Thanks for sharing this, Chef Mike. Bravo!

Thanks for the video! Just caught and cooked up my first rainbow trout with this recipe and it was delicious!

Very nice video, just moved out from my parents and needed to know how to cook my own catches now.

This is professionally done and explained so well. Thanks Chef Mike. You're the man.

Thank you for the video and recipe. My twins went fishing today and caught a trout and I made it and they loved it!

I really like this method. I'm gonna cook some up right now. You made it look really easy and nicely showed the steps along the way.

I prefer to clean trout a different way but cooked them this way tonight. Turned out great!

I was so skeptical since this video started out with a knife ad. I didn't have half the ingredients and the trout turned out delicious! Thank you for the video!

South Jersey shout out! This recipe was amazing!!! Your trout was a bit larger than what we caught in the stocked lakes we have here, but after adjusting the temp on the stove a bit, I will never cook or eat trout any other way! Quick tip for South jersey, scale the trout before you do anything because they are slimy 😮

I caught 5 rainbow yesterday and I'm going to try your recipe today. Thanks.

Looks delicious, thanks for the video. Never cooked trout before and caught a few yesterday.

I'm a chef and can't stand most of the jobs I've had and have-this guy's a "chef" and has it friggin made and he's hilarious! I think basically this was more of an advertisement for those HUGE fillet knives lol-I've had the same one for ages lol you don't need all those that are pretty much the same size! I would kill for this guy's job-would've added to the video by showing you me catching and cleaning the fish (boneless) also.

Just tried this recipe and my trout came out delicious. Thanks!

That just made me super hungry for trout. Gonna give it a try.

Caught my first trout fly fishing. Thanks chef mike!

I'm gonna tweak this recipe a little but I gotta say I love freshly caught trout!

I would like to thank you for this video. It was so helpful and easy to follow. I was able to fillet and pull the bones out!

Liked this very much! It uses a lot of butter, but trout is tasty with butter. Used a local white wine, a bit sweeter than my preference, and needed to adjust the sauce accordingly. Added just a touch of garlic powder at the end and it made all the difference. Thanks for the recipe!

Well done, looks delicious.

Trout, if you fillet it right. You don't have to go through the deboning process, if you have a sharp enough fillet knife, you can get in very close to the spine, and just discard the entire spine bones and all.

Caught a 22 inch rainbow trout! Great recipe!!

this looks good, going to try it

That looks amazing!

Guys the coating is to help protect the flavor during the frying process. Breath 😂!

My dad went fishing with my brother yesterday and caught 3 female fish and 200 male fish my mom's cooking it while I look up how to make it. I like the way the sauce is with all the herbs

Great presentation. Thank you for sharing. At one time, in Southern California, we were able to buy Golden Trout at specialty markets in Newport Beach. Haven't seen them in years, but they are beautiful fish, the color of 14 K gold, and endemic to the Kern Highland. Should you get a chance to try them, please do so.

Awesome recipe! Looks absolutely delicious. I prefer to remove the entire skeleton, including the “Y” bones, before the cook. I leave the skin completely intact so that it still looks like a whole fish, just no bones. It makes for a nicer presentation, but it is a lot more work, for sure. That being said, I can’t wait to try it this way. Thanks, Chef Mike!!!

Fantastic, loved it great job and presentation, even made me hungry.. Thanks

this deboning is absolutely awesome nice job an easy

Never cooked a trout like this but I’m about to try it!

Thanks, just made my first trout with my new Wusthof Blackwood knives and awesome Wusthof fish scissors per your instructions. It's so good! My anti-fish husband even ate it! Sorry but I didn't do the sauce. Its great without!

excellent recipe...absolutely delicious...thank you so much

Yum yum....looks delicious.

Time to get cooking caught three rainbows last night!

I def need a boning / filet knife . Getting ready to cook a lake salmon from Montana and the key is a good knife. My knives were sharpened by a kid that's knife crazy so not a problem to cut out the bones. I use a small pair of pliers to pull out the small pin bones. I love trout / salmon skin if it is crispy!

Awesome, i just used your recipe. Perfect

I'd do butter sauce differently because don't like chives. It looked fantastic though. I'm working on catching my first trout this year. Thx for the video now I know how to prepare them.

Thank you for giving idea of cooking trout fish

10/10 fabulous trout!

Never heard a Chef say "and stuff" when they're talking about ingredients

Excellent! Thank you. I’m hungry now, bon appétit.

"we dont wanna put so many thing on it, we wanna fish to talk itself" *buries fish in white*

?? you just don't take away the bones after frying. Why make a nice crusting if you plan to throw it? And, yes, fish needs to swim... first in butter, then in wine :-)

Love it! Thank you!

I agree with the other comments. There's no point to all that then take the bones off. He should have properly filleted the fish first and remove the head which isn't going to be eaten anyways! The cooking part looks really tasty though!

Thinking about trying this tomorrow if I catch some trout :P

Rainbows have scales, I scrape the scales off before cooking, or with a pair of needle nose pliers, grab a flap of skin and peel back toward the tail. Some folks won't eat the skin. Brooks are the best, they don't have scales. Gotta freezer filled with goldies and rainbows, bout to go catch more lol

Thanks! It was delicious. I still need practice getting the bones out.

Excellent job chef

I just caught a 17" rainbow trout today an I Pan fried it and it was delicious. What's a little bit of seasoning. But my Trouts meat was very Orange In colour. But the trout that you have there in your video it's meat is white in color.

Pan style rainbow bone 😂 it’s best to filet before frying great and easy tutorials out there on how to do it before cooking it.

Thank you so much so very well done!

I just caught one and I didn't do a few things I froze it to get rid of the slime from the pond he put up a nice fight love catching them

MMMMM...I BOUGHT TROUT TODAY...I'M GONNA TRY IT....TO YUMMY...YUMMY FOR MY TUMNY....THANK UOU🥰🤙🤗

Wow great job 👏 🤤

Looks great

I did the lazy form of this recipe. I did it just like him except I only used salt and pepper and butter then just ate it like that. It ended up good.

You should change the title to Cook a rainbow trout as there is NO cleaning involve which is what I intent to see. >_

just took a job at a bistro style restaurant and they have a trout dish... growing up next to a river with trout , i never really learned to cook them suprisingly i was not into cooking fish ever or eating it much.

Old Bay and seasoned flower? I clean and wash and dry my trout. I season with some sea salt and fry it in butter till it's brown and crispy on the outside, moist and flakey on the inside. My wife removes the bones by lifting them out. Yummy 😋

LOVE YOU CHEFY ❤️ LOTS LOVE FROM A INDIAN CHEF'S HEART 🙏 I WISH WE COULD COOK TOGETHER SIR

Its funny I'm looking for rainbow trout recipes and all I have in my kitchen are wusthof knives 😂

When did Chumlee learn to cook?

Awesome!

I was really surprised that you disposed of the tiny fins. If you keep the head on why not keep the fins? Because the fish that is still on them have an enormous amount of flavor!

hi do you have to use white wine?? :)

Little tip, leave fins in and pull them out after cooking. Pulls all the bones with it and saves the skin

so why the fuck bread the fish if youre going to remove it during the deboning process?

did he touch the fish and cross contaminate... i mean touch everything else with the same hand?

A lot of people remove the bones or fillet a fish but I cook it with the bones and suck on the bones when I fry or bake the fish. That’s where most of the flavor goes and it’s delicious. Plus after years of eating tilapia I’ve learned how to locate the bones while I’m chewing. Great recipe though definitely have to try it 👍

Awesome

Gordon Ramsey knows a few chef mikes

Looks great, I can't stand when restaurants don't de-bone the damn fish, it's not impossible, it's not even that hard, especially with this method

This is exciting

Thank you

bout to do this

Do you have to descale trout if you eat the skin?

Thank you very much. boi

Waste of my time! The title said clean and cook. But the fish is cleaned already. It should be called prepare and cook.

... fish gravy. I like it !

"ALLS WE GONNA DO"....lol

Never need a camera quality was good back then

Haha this is so true. I havn't thought of it this way before but very true. Like a baby cow, smaller trout, deer, elk, halibut.......all better in smaller sizes. Old halibut isn't that good and neither is a huge old buck.

I think a few capers added to the sauce would be nice too, just a few.

Can you use red wine?

Yummy!

What do you use if you don't want to use alcohol?

He should have added capers in the sauce! Sincerely -Chef Brad

what kind of filet knife is that

How does it taste compared to tilapia?

@matthew wong, no since he has to wash and clean the knives and stuff to fillet the trout

you didn't gut it yourself?
