INPUT ARTICLE: Article: As you rinse the boneless fillets under cool water, use your fingers to remove any remnants that are stuck to the fillet from the gutting and bone removal process. Gently shake excess water from the fillets, and place them into a glass baking dish. Place the fillets skin side down into the baking dish to make it easier to marinate. Coat the fillets with 2 US tbsp (30 mL) of olive oil, 4 cloves of chopped garlic, and 1 1/2 tbsp (2.55 g) of chopped, dried rosemary. Use your fingers to rub the seasonings into the meat. Then, cover the baking dish and set it in the refrigerator so the fillets can marinate overnight. If you do not want to season your fillets before smoking them, then proceed to soak the fillets in brine after rinsing them. Pour the water into a large container that can hold about 4 US quarts (3,800 mL). Add the kosher salt, and use a spoon to stir the water for 1-2 minutes or until the salt is completely dissolved. This will create a basic brine that will moisten and add flavor to the trout. Sweeten the brine by stirring in 1/2 cup (100 g) of brown sugar. Arrange your trout fillets so that all of them are submerged within the brine. Then, place a cover on the container and set it in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 3 hours. Take a fillet out of the container with the brine, and rinse it under cool water until any excess brine has been removed. Then, use a paper towel to gently dry off the fillet. Discard the brine by pouring it down your kitchen sink, and then thoroughly rinse your sink with hot water. Take each fillet and place them on a baking rack. Make sure the skin side of the fillet is against the rack, as this will help expedite the drying process. If you do not have a baking rack large enough to support all of the fillets, use 2 smaller baking racks instead. Smaller baking racks might also be easier to place inside your refrigerator if it is filled with food. Rest the baking rack in a spot of your refrigerator where the fillets won’t be disturbed. Leave the fillets overnight or for a full 24 hours so they can dry. The skin on the fillets will be shiny or slightly sticky when ready.  If the skin does not seem shiny or sticky, then continue to refrigerate the fillets until the skin appears shiny. The tackiness is key to getting the smoke flavor to adhere to the meat. To make the baking rack easier to transport, set it inside of a baking sheet. This will also keep the raw fish from contaminating other items in your refrigerator.

SUMMARY: Rinse the boneless trout fillets and rest them in a glass baking dish. Marinate the fillets overnight in olive oil, chopped garlic, and dried rosemary. Mix 1 US quart (950 mL) of water with 1/2 cup (150 g) of kosher salt. Submerge each of your fillets in the brine and refrigerate them for 3 hours. Rinse the fillets under cool water to remove the brine. Spread the fillets out on a baking rack, placing the skin against the rack. Refrigerate the fillets on the baking rack for 21-24 hours to dry them.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you have identified symptoms that may indicate a learning disorder, talk to your doctor. They’ll have questions about your family medical history and the child’s academic performance. The doctor may refer you and your child to a neurologist to get a more complete picture of how the child’s brain functions.  The doctor will also help you to rule out medical reasons for learning problems, such as poor vision or hearing. If you have your child’s IQ and standardized test results, show these to your doctor. There are various psychological and emotional tests that your child can take to help you and your doctor identify any issues and decide on a good course of treatment. The doctor may also ask you and your child to work closely with the school psychologist in diagnosing and treating a learning disorder. If your child struggles specifically with issues related to reading and speech, your doctor may refer them to a speech pathologist. The discrepancy between the two test scores that’s sufficient to diagnose a learning disability will differ between states. For example, in some states a difference of 15 points may be sufficient to diagnose the child with a learning disability, while in others, the difference may need to be over 20 points.  Talk to your school district about whether your child's learning disability will permit them to get extra help in school. Talk to the school administrators or counselor about how to help your child if they’re not diagnosed with a learning disability. There may be other reasons for why your child is not performing at the level at which they should be.

SUMMARY:
Visit your pediatrician to discuss the possibility of a learning disorder. Talk to your doctor about other tests to diagnose a learning disorder. Find out how your state identifies a learning disability.
