Carpione is a variety of trout native to the waters of Lake Garda, in northern Italy. It is scarce today, but it was once abundant and often more was caught than could be consumed immediately. This gave rise to a cooking procedure that allowed the fish to be conserved for several days, even in the days of erratic refrigeration. It became the prevalent way of preparing carpione and whenever other fish was cooked in that manner the style of the dish would be called in carpion
