Personal Notes:
The word "meuniere" is a reference to the miller of flour, whose wife (according to French lore) cooked everything coated with flour. The original French style of trout meuniere, then, was seasoned and floured, sauteed in butter, and then topped with the browned butter from the pan. This is still more or less how the dish is done in some restaurants--notably Galatoire's. It's different from the more common Creole meuniere sauce, which is thicker and darker.
