Fangst Danish Freshwater Trout in Juniper & Thyme

This tin is a bit personal for Fangst. Co-founder Martin grew up visiting trout farms with his dad, a biologist who spent his career developing freshwater trout farming in Denmark. The trout here is raised in Danish fresh water, smoked, then packed in cold-pressed rapeseed oil with juniper and lemon thyme.

The juniper brings a slightly piney, almost gin-like note, and the lemon thyme lifts it with a bit of citrus. Put that together with the smoke and it tastes like something you'd eat in a cabin somewhere cold. Try it on buttered rye with pickled onion and dill, Danish open-sandwich style, or flaked through a warm potato salad.
