How to make Sorrel sauce step by step ( served with trout filet)

Join my online French cooking classes : https://learn.thefrenchcookingacademy.com/p/get-started-with-french-cooking Learn to make the classic trout filet with sorrel sauce in this video. The sorrel sauce is a delicious, world renowned sauce; simple to make and requiring very few ingredients. Sorrel is the star ingredient helped along with cream, white wine, vermouth and fish stock.

Ingredients needed:

900 g fresh trout or salmon filet (flattened)
80 g fresh sorrel leaves
2 shallots (finely chopped)
4 cl of Vermouth
8 cl of dry white wine (Sancerre, or muscadet works fine)
30 cl of fish stock ( see link below to see how to make it)
40 cl of double cream ( heavy whipping cream
1/2 lemon (squeeze into juice)
Salt pepper

I only use white wine in the video because I couldn't find vermouth but use both if you want to achieve the authentic recipe.

Note: Ideally the trout or salmon fillet should be flattened. Here's a link to the perfect utensil to do this:

Short history: This is a legendary dish of the Troisgros house, created almost by chance in 1963. While Jean and Pierre Troisgros discovered the salmon flattening technique, their mother brought a meal of sorrel from her garden. "Everything started from there," says Michel Troisgros, son of Pierre. A handful of sorrel mixed with a high quality cream and poured over a salmon so flat the family couldn't find a dish large enough to serve it on. Legend has it the large soup plate and sauce spoon were invented just to enjoy this dish.
