Unfortunately it's not the season for fresh peas. I do have some frozen

I love cooking with wine.
Sometimes I even put it in the food.
I lucked out on asparagus yesterday at Kroger in my area. They had
nice looking bundles for $1.99. In season is better, but sometimes I
treat myself. You drive a long way to a grocery, though, don't you.
I can see why you don't want to drive there if it's not necessary!
What about roasted squash? I love it roasted with olive oil.

Hi Jill, try my recipe for salmon cakes. It's a bit different and
yummy. It's on my website
A nice side is simple buttered egg noodles seasoned with salt, pepper
and black poppy seeds.
Always. Aw man, now I have to go get some Salmon for tomorrow...darn it, I
didn't want to go out, but I really want this meal now

Cole slaw works well with all salmon including patties.

I haven't made them in a very long time, but I do like them. Something I
should make soon. Mom almost always served buttered green peas scalloped or
au gratin potatoes, neither very imaginative, but worked well just the same.
Not a side dish, but she also always made a white sauce to which she added a
fair amount of very finely diced cucumber and some chopped fresh dill. I
think that was my favorite part.

Of course it is. M&C is a "traditional Southern accompaniment" for damn

Don't know if anyone else asked, but would you please post your
recipe? I'm mainly interested in whether you bake or fry them, and
having them not fall apart.
My sides would be
sliced tomatoes and sweet onions, drizzled with olive oil and basil
squash in some form
couscous if you wanted more starch
Slaw works well. Did that the other night and the starch was steamed
basmati rice. Along the same lines kimchi works well.
Spuds in any form would go well but since you already have the skillet
at the ready how-bout a couple hash brown patties... OR since it's
winter I know I'd opt for a frozen veggie, I keep a stock of those
oriental stir fry blends.... could use it to deglaze your pan and
create a light glossy sauce at the same time.

What's wrong with hating salmon patties?
Unlike Bob, I don't know if I like salmon patties, as I've never had
them. However, since I prefer fish and shellfish very gently cooked
(or raw), I doubt I'd like them.
I wouldn't serve hemlock salad on the side, because I'd probably
be eating quite a bit of the sides.

One can of salmon, reserve the juice. Place salmon and juice in a
bowl and break the fish up with a fork, add one egg and enough
cornmeal for the mixture to hold together, about a cup. You don't
want it runny nor do you want it dry as a bone either. Sorta like the
consistency of concrete mix. Doesn't that sound delicious? I always
add several generous shakes of lemon pepper to the mixture before
stirring. The choice of any addition is purely personal.
Drop by good size spoonsful into a skillet of hot oil. Fry until
golden brown on one side, flip and repeat.

The only salmon patties I've had were from Trader Joe's. If I happened to
live in a place without Trader Joe's I'd probably never have tried salmon
patties either.
Bob
My recipe is more like:
Can of salmon,
saltine crackers, one egg, dash of worcestershire, lemon juice,
chopped onion, salt and pepper and maybe a dash of paprika after
cooked.
I think I'll make some tongiht. :-)
No. I still wake up screaming sometimes when I dream about all the
whitefish panfried to death with a coating of cornflake crumbs that I
ate
when I was a child.
Cindy Hamilton
Were they any good? I've never had them, either. My sister does them
with the creamed peas side for her daughter's birthday dinner.
...and you're from the midwest! Pish tosh. We had salmon patties
regularly when I was a tot, growing up on an Iowa farm. I love them.
I generally have them with just a squirt of fresh lemon juice.
You can make pretty much the same mixture and pour it into a greased
pie plate and call it a supper pie, with or without crust.
Leftover salmon patties make the very best sandwiches! Better than
leftover meatloaf, actually.
N.
I had been using leftover mashed potatoes (well, not THAT old) - I'll
try the cornmeal or saltines instead. Thanks.
I have half a can of salmon left from making some salmon rice pilaf
the other night - it was ok, but.....
i don't know about that, but i've never eaten salmon cakes, either. nor
tuna casserole.

The Trader Joe's salmon patties get a "meh" rating from me. I wouldn't
make salmon patties at home anyway, I think there are better things to do
with salmon. Then again, I'm not the SPAM connoisseur that "brooklyn" is.
People who can *read* would be able to tell that in the post quoted above I
didn't say anything about whether I liked them or not. That's why Barb asked
whether they were any good.
But exceptionally STUPID people like "brooklyn" (who has yet to come clean
about his identity as Sheldon "Pussy" Katz, probably out of fear) leap to
misinformed, incorrect, and stupid conclusions, obviously based on their own
life experiences. (Said experiences being pretty well defined by such words
as ignorant, impotent, and frustrated.)
Bob
I hope you remove the bones and skin, not that they're inedible but
makes for more enjoyable eating. Naturally I don't cook salmon
patties too often, canned tuna is nothing, canned salmon makes my cats
nuts.
I prefer to use the better grade red salmon but the cheaper pink works
too, and I wouldn't bother for just one can, I'd use a minimum of two,
probably three... I'm not going to stink up my kitchen with frying
fish for just a couple three patties... I make extra because I
actually like salmon patties cold better than hot, in fact after
cooking I'm likely to put them all in the fridge until the next day...
and they freeze well too.
I add finely minced onions and celery, not too much, a Tbs per can. I
like to add a little dill weed, dehy works fine. Add one egg and
about two-three Tbls matzo meal per can... pepper but no salt, canned
salmon is plenty salty on it's own. I also like to add a little
frozen peas, carrots, and corn, really jsut for interest. I form
large patties with straight sides; like 4" diameter X 3/4" high... but
slightly oval so more will fit into the pan. Then I dust with flour,
dip in egg wash, and coat with seasoned matzo meal. I'll do this in
the morning so they can firm up in the fridge all day until I'm ready
to cook them. Salmon patties are good hot but I think they're even
better cold... nice on a bun with tartar sauce. Somewhere I have an
excellent recipe for a salmon loaf that includes a pint of cottage
cheese (baked in a bread loaf pan), but I can't locate it and don't
want to guess.
> The Trader Joe's salmon patties get a "meh" rating from me.
Not sure what a "meh" is, but I wouldn't buy them.
I tried TJs crab cakes and the residue they left in my then new
non-stick skillet took literally years to get off. Weird stuff.

I haven't had them either. I saw them around back in the mid-west as
'institutional food.' Hospital food, school lunches and such. I'd be
willing to try making them. I would use bread crumbs, egg, onion, celery,
salt and pepper. Maybe a bit of roasted red pepper, Anything else???
Maybe Worstershire? Tabasco?
Janet
I don't believe I've ever had them. My mother didn't use canned salmon
much, and I don't recall ever making them on my own. I generally avoid
things like that (say, tuna salad) unless I've made them myself. That's
because I hate onions and people tend to think some minced onions will
be dandy in there.

Day 346 of the "no grouchy usenet posts" project
W'shire and Tabasco wouldn't be my choice for fish - you could put in
some diced red or green bell pepper, garlic, and parsley flakes.
Maybe a small sprinkle of cayenne or paprika....otherwise, you've
pretty much got it. Instead of patties, you can add another egg or
two and call it a souffle.
N.
I like salmon the same way you do - plus cold out of the can, bones
and all. What can I say, maybe I'm part cat.... ;-)
N.
N.
O.k., diced red pepper it is. I always have that on hand and love it for
the sweetness (vitamins don't hurt either). I wouldn't choose garlic for
it, but different strokes. Also a touch of cayenne or similar. Thanks.
Just got to get the canned salmon.

Here's my thinking, Janet, based on nothing but my predilection for
plain food: Eighty-six the celery and the red pepper and the Tabasco.
And don't use too much onion. Make a salmon patty, not a
salmon-vegetable patty. JMO.
Those are good, valid points. I've watched cooks on TV doing crab cakes and
that is the argument between the two sides. Vegetable patty vs. seafood
patty. I'm a plain food cook as well. We'll see what happens when the time
arrives.

Canned salmon must have been expensive and didn't get into Mom's
shopping cart very often. And we never had fish except on Fridays.
Friday suppers involved a fair amount of tuna, mac and cheese (IIRC),
and creamed-something (peas & carrots or tuna or, rarely, salmon) on
toast.
I think I might have a can of salmon in the cupboard. I'll make a point
to make salmon patties in the near future. Maybe Janet and I should
have a salmon patty cook-along. "-0)
I love the bones in canned salmon.
That they make a good leftover sandwich�"better than meatloaf, even"�is
no recommendation, AFAIC. :-o)

Ja, sure. There might even be a salmon patty hotdish in there somewhere?
We had fish a lot. We lived a block from Lake Michigan where the commercial
fisherman docked and my brother-in-law was the best fisherman/hunter. We
ate lots of wild food.
Janet

I found this on Cooks.com. A salmon hotdish for Barb and Janet!
SALMON HOT DISH
6 med. potatoes, boiled with skins
1 lb. can salmon
2 tbsp. butter
1/4 c. diced onion
1/2 tsp. salt
Pinch of pepper
Make white sauce from about 3 cups of milk. Add salt, pepper, butter,
onions and fish. Peel potatoes and slice. Put 1 layer in casserole. Add some
fish mixture, another layer of potatoes and so on, ending with the white
sauce mixture. Top with shredded American cheese. Bake in 300 degree oven
for about 40 minutes or until heated thoroughly.
Speaking of ice cream.....weren't you asking about the recipe with
cream cheese in it? Did you ever try it?

Not at all. Love canned tuna! Love salmon. I'll even eat canned
salmon in a salad, etc. But, salmon patties made with canned salmon
are the dish from Hell! Probably due to the fact it was an all too
common staple made by my single working mom. In fact, she snuck open
a can of salmon jes the other night and before I realized what she was
at, she had a batch of those damned things frying in the skillet. The
stench was almost unbearable and took 3 days and half a can of Ozium
to kill. First time I've been exposed to that toxic horror in 40 yrs!

A little good mustard and some parsley.
A small amount (for flavor, really, not a lot of substance) of diced
onion, celery, and bell pepper doesn't make it a vegetable patty. But

I can vouch for the cream cheese. I use a good quality tangy
version that gives things a nice flavor. The end product
is quite light, which is not what I expected.

Vegetable patty for me, please!
Bought some pre-cooked chicken patties, I think at Costco. Just needed

they had in them. Garlic, onion and peppers at least. Very tasty for a
quick meal.

I lucked out on asparagus yesterday at Kroger in my area. They had
nice looking bundles for $1.99. In season is better, but sometimes I
treat myself. You drive a long way to a grocery, though, don't you.
I can see why you don't want to drive there if it's not necessary!
What about roasted squash? I love it roasted with olive oil.
Ruth
I do drive a long way to the grocery store, Ruth. The "vegetable market"
between my house and the grocery store is open only when the owner feels
like it. There are no set hours. I've gone in at times and all he had was
a pile of pitiful looking sweet potatoes, onions and maybe some starting to
shrivel bell peppers... other times nearly anything is plentiful but
asparagus is not a South Carolina crop so there's never any of that :(
Roasted squash sounds great... I'll keep that in mind the next time I make
salmon patties! (I wound up cooking broccoli, from frozen.) Thanks for the
suggestions!
