Notes

  • You can make salmon patties using canned salmon. Canned Alaska salmon is an affordable, healthy and sustainable choice that would work perfectly for this recipe. If using canned salmon, start from the second step and make the salmon patties mixture.
  • You can use regular bread crumbs or panko bread crumbs which are larger. Both would make the patties soft on the inside.
  • Don't use a food processor to make the salmon patties mixture as it will cut the salmon into very small pieces and you won't have flaky patties in the end. Using a fork to flake the salmon is a better way to make these patties.
  • You can also make
  • by leaving out the bread crumbs and adding 5 tablespoons of cornmeal and one tablespoon of all purpose flour to the salmon patty mixture. These patties are also called southern salmon patties and they should be fried.
