• Salmon Patties (again)

    From jmcquown@21:1/5 to All on Sun Feb 25 16:36:11 2024
    Yep, all the discussion about salmon patties set off a craving. :)

    It was a 14.75 oz. can of pink salmon. (Yes, they used to come in 15 oz.
    cans and probably before that 16 oz.) There wasn't much skin, not that
    I worry about it. I didn't bother removing the little round bones,
    either. They mash up so easily. I drained it and flaked it over the
    sink in the strainer with a fork, then put it in a deep mixing bowl.

    I stirred in a whole egg, added some dehydrated onion and garlic powder.
    I recently bought some fresh sour cream so I added about a Tbs. and
    stirred until it was well mixed. Then I gradually added flour, seasoned
    with S&P and a dash of cayennne pepper, until the mixture was no longer
    really wet. Formed the mixture into patties and set them on waxed paper
    on a plate and put them in the refrigerator to set. I'll be pan-frying
    them in a large non-stick skillet in a bit of hot corn oil until golden
    brown on both sides.

    Vegetable side: I'm thinking asparagus. I have some frozen spears that
    heat up quite nicely in a little bit of water in the microwave.

    Pan frying gives them much more flavour, but maybe you're trying to
    avoid flavour.

    Every time I look in my larder I see my large can of pink salmon, but there's always some leftovers in the 'frig to be consumed first. Maybe Tuesday or Wednesday I'll finally open my can and get to work; I'll post my efforts
    when I do.

    i can eat leftover salmon patties any time. i even enjoy
    them cold.

    we've been having lasagna the past day or two but it was not
    made with lasagna noodles so it is elbow lasagna. still tastes
    good and a welcome change from baked spaghetti (which we've had
    too much of IMO in the past year).

    with it went garlic bread and some mixed colors of cauliflower
    salad (that had bacon, carrots and Ken's Vidalia Onion dressing
    on it). of course later on Mom had reactions from the salad.
    it could have been sulfides or the dressing.

    I really should have used some breadcrumbs rather than seasoned flour.
    The addition of sour cream is from the recipe my mother used to use when
    she added crushed corn chips to the mix. A little sour cream punches up
    the taste but with just flour it made this mixture a tad too moist.
    Still quite tasty! Come to think of it, next time I'll buy some corn
    chips and use them rather than breadcrumbs or flour. :)

    Even Granny Clampett would look askance at such a woeful concoction...

    A toddler's mud pie would no doubt taste superior...

    You like the sounds of shitty, canned pink salmon. https://photos.app.goo.gl/biewcFrHMPgywrEcA


    I like salmon patties. I bet you would too, if you fried them up in some
    super expensive oil.

    we bake them in the oven, flip about half way through. no

    Humm! I got a box of plain corn flakes thinking to try them crushed as
    a variation. I don't do it often but I've made good crab cakes. I am
    watching for a good sale on the crab meat in the chiller section.

    Your mother was a shitty cook. That apple didn't fall far.


    Jill's ghastly "recipes" are like some demented imitations of the junky stuff you'd see in 1950's women's magazines...

    I bet next she'll post something like canned salmon in a slimy Jello mold or such like...

    As it is, the canned salmon patties with crushed Fritos are gag - inducing...

    That's like something John Waters would use as a fake vomit "prop" in one of his films...

    Don has to be careful there but only to keep in 'reduced' not severely restricted. We aim for no more than 1600mg sodium per day. That's not
    too hard to hit once you break the salt shaker habit. I converted him
    to a product made by Morton that still has salt but also is mixed with
    other things so tends a bit high on potasium so can't go too crazy with
    it.
