Bay Leaf and Salt-Baked Trout Bay Leaf and Salt-Baked Trout

Author: Canadian Living

Fresh bay leaves are readily available in the fresh herb section of most grocery stores. If you can't find them, stuff the trout cavities with fresh herbs such as dill, parsley, thyme or tarragon. Arctic char is also particularly good prepared this way.
