Salmon Patties

Pro Tips for the Best Salmon Patties

· Get the Texture Right: If your mixture is too wet, add a few more breadcrumbs. If it’s too dry and won’t hold together, add another egg yolk or a tablespoon of mayonnaise.
· Don’t Skip the Chill: Chilling the formed patties is the #1 trick to prevent them from falling apart in the pan.
· Don’t Over-flip: Flip them only once. Let them develop a beautiful, crispy crust before you disturb them.
· Baking Option: For a healthier version, bake them on a parchment-lined baking sheet at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
· Using Fresh Salmon: You can use 1.5 to 2 lbs of cooked, flaked salmon (poached, baked, or grilled). Ensure it’s cooled and any skin is removed.

Enjoy your delicious, homemade salmon patties! They’re a comforting, versatile, and satisfying meal any day of the week.
