This salad was a big hit in my house. Because my husband dislikes watercress, I used baby arugula instead. The recipe called for a sweet red apple -- which I thought I had ... but didn't ... so I substituted a Granny Smith. No doubt a sweeter apple would have been a better flavor complement to the other elements of the salad ... but the Granny Smith was just fine. We definitely enjoyed the dressing (whipping cream, horseradish, some dill, and a little EVOO and apple cider vinegar) with the slightly bitter lettuce and the smoked trout. Will definitely make this one again ... with a Gala or Fuji apple next time.

Recipe can also be found in the November 1998 Bon Appetit.

The recipe was written for a Thanksgiving issue of the magazine so it makes a huge amount of dressing -- I easily made a 1/4 recipe of the dressing, more than enough to dress two salads.
