  • Store the leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 days. 
  • To freeze cooked salmon burgers: Wrap each one individually in plastic wrap, transfer them all to a freezer safe bag and freeze for up to 3 months. 
  • To freeze uncooked salmon burgers: form the patties and place them on a lined baking sheet. Freeze for 2 hours or until they are completely frozen and solid. Transfer to a freezer safe bag and freeze for up to 3 months. To cook, take them out of the bag and onto a lined baking sheet, thaw in the fridge for a few hours and cook as instructed.
