Made some this evening. Like em? Don’t like em? I love them. What say you?

Ron

I like them as long as they are not packed with things like celery and onions. If I'm paying for fish, I'm eating fish.

kwg

Not so much on salmon, but I make fish burgers all the time... Rock, Cobia, Sheephead, Sierra, shark, Jurel etc. etc.

Pork rinds as an added binder/crunch with mayo and Texas Pete... or some variation.

Oil in cast iron... or bacon grease.

Homemade dills on white bread.

I like em. Either grilled or pan fried.

Grew up on the Oregon coast. Salmon was plentiful. Mom use to make salmon patties quite often. Now I prefer white fish.

With Ketshup.

Rotten fish bait in a can. Poke a few holes in the can and use it to chum for something that's still swimming!

That’s like asking if anyone likes crab cakes!

Well, the good ones are pretty fine. I’ll pass on the canned pink version, thank you.

But I rather prefer salmon croquettes, to be honest.

We ate them as a kid. Now I don't eat them.

Have eaten them off/on most of my life. I can take them or leave them. My late mother & second wife fix them about the same, & think the only sides I've ever had with them were fried potatoes & pork n beans. Maybe mac & cheese sometimes.


A meal that seems to go back many decades.

A regular staple here at the cabin. I’ll smash out patties of several kinds trout, grayling, jack makeral.

We make them sometimes with the previous nights leftover salmon. If it's fresh, grilled with blackened seasoning is the best I think. Some fresh dill, basil, garlic, dijon, s&p, a bit of lemon, mixed with mayo spread on the bun also.

I like them.

Only had canned salmon, no fresh. Bet that would be even better.

Onions and celery in mine.

Love them

Grilled

Thin slice of red onion and a little bit of St Elmo cocktail sauce

I really wish I'd learned to make them while my mom was alive. I try but mine don't come out as good as hers

They look good to me Ohio7x57.

Recipe?

Love them. Especially as leftovers the next day.

Thats fine dining , great pan fried .

Not trying to high jack this thread, but my Grandma used to make squirrel patties and they were awesome......ahh to be young again

I love them, but haven't made any in a while.

Do you ever wonder why people think you're a dipshìt?

Sorry, dumb question.

Mom would make them out of canned salmon or homemade canned sucker. Egg and crackers to bind and fried in lard. I really enjoyed them, but we was poor folk and I had two older brothers so it didn’t pay to be a picky eater.

We love them and pour cream of celery soup made with dill and capers over them.

Egg, flour garlic onins and a little milk . Fry them up in a skillet .

Here ya go Bee!

Don't like salmon or shark, everything else I'm good to go.

Love salmon patties. Had them for dinner a couple nights ago. I scrape the carcass with a spoon after I filet a salmon or steelhead. You end up with enough for a couple patties.

I add minced onion, celery and bell pepper. Mayo and some bread crumbs. I like them thin. IMO they eat and cook better thinner rather than thicker

Love em’.
Usually have mashed potatoes, peas and mac & cheese as sides.

This!

I have had some that were decent and some that weren't depends on the cooks skill. Just like with anything else.

There's a reason salmon and trout fishermen invented catch and release.

Love any "fish cake". Dad used to make patties from red fin suckers we caught when they run in the spring.Not sure exactly how he cleaned them, but I know he used to dunk the chunks of cleaned meat in a pan of hot water and flake the meat off the bones.

If it's the same as salmon croquettes, absolutely. Pulverize some saltine crackers for the "batter"...

I like fish.

I like any kind of fish patty, salmon, tuna, crab, striper, etc.

I would love to try this.

Ate them for years growing up. Wife might cook them once every 3 months. We far prefer salmon fillets these days.

My mom made those! I love the heck out of them! She would serve them with Mac and cheese, red beans and a japelenos!

I am not a fan of salmon.

Horrible, awful things that stink up the house! (Especially when made with (GAG) mackerel.)

All salmon is not created equal

Dog food

I like em but prefer mackerel patties, that’s what my mom usually made growing up.

Yeah, I hate my dog, too.

How do you make a salmon patty out of mackerel?

Salmon ruined by overcooking is extremely common. My own mother was a horrible fish cook... Baked fillets for about 20 minutes and then covered half of the fish with sour cream or mayo and put it back in to brown. It sucked. Cooked properly it is very good fish.

Like fish chowder, making salmon patties (or any kind of fish cakes for that matter) is a way to use up small pieces and pre-cooked leftovers (also canned) that cannot be served as fresh filets or steaks. At least that's how it worked growing up in the '40's and '50's.

I like them.

Ditto.

Mom made them, I ate them with an equal weight of ketchup tp cover the taste.
I remember sitting at the table after everyone else was done, staring down a
salmon cake. Hoping it would disappear. Dad taught me to bury them in ketchup.


Many years later I made some comment to Mom about salmon cakes, and
she busted out laughing. "We had them for supper awhile back. Your Dad looked
at me and said, "I know you like these, but you dont have to make them very often for me." She started laughing again and continued, "You don't like them? Holy Hell
I hate 'em, I made the damn things all these years thinking you liked them. Wait till
Karl hears this, we forced him to eat them when he was little."

i like them,we do trout cakes and catfish cakes. i have 20lbs of fresh caught lake ontario salmon in the freezer now. none of it will be made into cakes. grilled is my favorite.

Wife makes them with canned salmon, fried potatoes and ketchup.

my wife likes tuna patties better, so we make that occasionally. Mom made salmon croquettes when I was a kid.

My Grandmother used to make them for me for lunch if I was at her house. She made it out of canned salmon. I remember her picking the bones out of it before putting them together. I think she used Saltine crackers mustard and mayo. She fried them.
Doubt I would enjoynit these days out of a can but I might try some out of fresh salmon.

mom made them growing up from the pink can. I hated them at the time, now that she is gone, I'd wish I could have them again.

These are fantastic - Jamie Oliver recipe, using chopped fresh salmon !!



Chop half roughly & balance very finely, the fine paste becomes the binder !

Like P-Tar, love a fresh salmon burger/sandwich too.

Looking for photo **

Can you substitute the crumbled pork rinds for flour as a binder, or do you still need some flour?

Mama made mackerel , sometimes salmon patties. It was all good with catsup. Didn't pay to be picky about food during those times.. She used cracker crumbs but I bet you could use oatmeal....I use it in meatloaf.

Truth, use the best you can get !

If you have to use canned, use red, not pink !

Canned salmon prices kinda made these a dodo-bird.

And if I had fresh salmon every week, I can think of a lot better way to prepare salmon.

But I do love salmon patties. Tuna also.

Found it - Cooked to perfection, blush to translucent centre !

You have a point. Canned salmon is just a cheap bad tasting source of protein. If the 1970s Gulf coast commercial fishery quality standards are the same I bet a lot of near spoiled fish ended up in those cans. Maybe spoiled.
