This is made with house-pickled herring at Oberlin, but smoked trout is equally delicious as an ­anchovy alt. If you can’t get kohlrabi, try this same scenario on romaine. This recipe is from Oberlin, one of Bon Appétit's Hot 10, America's Best New Restau

Ingredients

4 ounces smoked trout, broken into bite-size pieces 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes 1/2 cup finely chopped mixed tender herbs (such as parsley, chives, and/or fennel fronds), divided 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil; plus more for drizzling Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper 4 slices (1/4-inch-thick) country-style bread 1 large egg yolk 1 garlic clove, finely grated 1 teaspoon plus 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 1/3 cup vegetable oil 2 pounds kohlrabies (about 5 medium), peeled, halved lengthwise, very thinly sliced Shaved Parmesan (for serving)

Instructions

Gently toss smoked trout, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, 1/4 cup mixed herbs, and 1/4 cup olive oil in a large bowl to combine; season with salt and black pepper. Let sit at room temperature 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 °F. Drizzle both sides of bread with olive oil; season with salt. Toast on a rimmed baking sheet until golden brown and crisp, 8 –10 minutes. Let cool, then crumble into small pieces. Set croutons aside. Whisk egg yolk, garlic, and 1 tsp. lemon juice in a medium bowl to combine. Whisking constantly, gradually add vegetable oil and 2 Tbsp. olive oil, drop by drop at first, then in a steady drizzle; whisk until aioli is thickened and emulsified. Stir in 1 tsp. water to loosen sauce; season with salt. Add kohlrabies and remaining 1 Tbsp. lemon juice to bowl with smoked trout mixture. Season with salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil, and gently toss to combine. Spread aioli on a large plate and top with kohlrabi salad, shaved Parmesan, reserved croutons, and remaining 1/4 cup mixed herbs.
