#62 Trota in Carpione (Northern Lakes)

I learned carpione from a fisherman on Lago Maggiore who told me it was how families kept food through the summer heat. You fry the trout, cover it with a warm mix of vinegar, vegetables, and herbs, then leave it to rest. When I made it myself, the trout firmed up, the sharpness settled, and everything found its balance. Itโ€™s simple, practical, and smarter than it looks.

Full story with recipe, method, and tips coming soon on Substack (link in bio).

  1. You have to be the best channel for this! I tried some recipes, they were truly a thing of beauty! Keep up the good work, you are reminding me of what is really important!

  2. I love your series so much, as someone who grew up in Europe i wanna do the same learn and learn to cook more regional French dishes! Thanks for all of the inspiration

  3. รˆ meglio se prima friggi le trote e poi le togli e fai il carpione nella stessa padella, cosรฌ c'รจ piรน sapore nel carpione. Altre cose ottime da fare in carpione: le tinche, le cotolette di vitello o di pollo, le zucchine.
