    Simple Salmon Patties, Revisited

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe Pin Recipe

    To my horror, I discovered that a disgusting photo I took of salmon patties in 2009 is making the rounds on Pinterest. I have no idea why people are pinning it, but they are. For a minute I thought it might actually be on a Pinterest Fail page but alas, it is on real Pinterest.

    Hoping for redemption, I rushed to the grocery store for salmon. We would have salmon patties for dinner, and I would take a Pinterest-worthy photo. Making the salmon patties was easy because they really are simple salmon patties. You could use canned salmon but I prefer fresh salmon, seared in a hot pan and cooled. The hardest part of this recipe is not eating all the salmon before you make it into patties.

    I will start by first posting the hideous picture from 2009. I am only doing this for purposes of comparison. My thinking is that no matter how bad today's picture is, it will still be better. If not, I am selling my camera  immediately. It would be the right thing to do.

    Breathe through your nose...

    Stifle your gag relax...

    Open your eyes...

    Simple Salmon Patties, circa 2009

    And now, I present:

    Simple Salmon Patties, circa 2015

    Better, right? Please say yes, because I love my camera more'n my luggage.

    I tweaked the original recipe by omitting the herbs, serving the patties on crostini atop a bed of pea shoots. I garnished the patties with homemade thousand island tartar sauce. Michael ate his as an open-faced salmon patty sandwich on an English muffin with melted Havarti cheese. This recipe works well with leftover salmon from the night before. I have even made it with salmon we smoked at home.

    Here's the recipe:

    I am Mary, the blogger behind "Oh That's Good!" I am a former nurse, former hobby farm blogger, former vintage shop owner, and current food blogger. I live with my husband and our little mutt Tucker in a lovely retirement community. I am cooking for two and taking inspiration from old cookbooks, magazines, and memories of watching my mother and grandmother cook. I like reducing my food waste and exorbitant grocery bills! I am busy rewriting my recipes for two servings with the option of adjusting the recipe up to four or six servings with just one click.
