What to do with tasteless fish?
Our normally reliable fish market sold us steel-head trout that are tasteless. Cooking method was a simple oven roast, with lemon slices and S&P in the cavity; cooked to 125 degrees; served with mustard cream sauce. Not all the mustard cream sauce in the ramekin could make up for the meh flavor. There are two more LARGE fish in the freezer. Apart from cooking them for the three cats and the dog...any thoughts?

One of my childhood favorites, the fish steaks are braised in an intense caramel-y sauce. So wonderful with plain white rice.
Or poach in sauce: https://chinesegrandma.com/2015/05/soy-sauce-poached-fish/
If you can find a recipe where the fish is braised or poached in a highly seasoned liquid, it should help with bland fish. Good luck!

PS Also let your fishmonger know of the bland taste...feedback always helps...maybe something is going on in that patch of water where they get their fish.
