Other than patties, what to do with canned salmon?!
Answers: Salmon loaf! My mother used to make the best one, but I don't have her recipe. If you google for it, try one. It should have a can of salmon, a cream of something soup, bread crumbs, an egg, a little milk, and maybe dill. I use whatever recipe I find that seems closest to mom's.
Feed it to your cat?
Salmon Wiggle
1 cup white sauce
1/2 flaked salmon 1/2 cup drained peas
1 batch of biscuits
Combine white sauce, peas, and salmon, and pour over hot biscuits.
We actually put it on top of mashed potato
Salmon Stew:
2 (6 ounce) cans skinless boneless pink salmon, drained
2 small skinned potatoes, cut up fine
3/4 gallon 2% low-fat milk
1 tablespoon butter
salt and pepper
Steam pootatoes til soft, drain water.
Using a Dutch oven, add milk, salmon, potatoes, butter, salt and pepper.
Cook on medium heat stirring constantly for approximately 20 minutes.
Do not allow to boil or milk will curdle.
Remove from heat and serve with crackers.
Canned salmon is also good scrambled with eggs.
Remember, except for the salt, tinned salmon is often better for you than fresh salmon from the grocery store, because you can easily buy wild salmon, which is much higher in anti-oxidants and omega 3s than farmed salmon, which is what the fresh salmon at the store almost always is. It is fed corn, and then dyed pink to make it look like the real thing.
pasta with a creamy sauce
Try this: 1 (15 oz) can Salmon
1 small-medium onion, sliced or diced
butter
1 or 2 beaten eggs
Sautee the onion in butter until soft, remove skin & bones from salmon; add salmon & the liquid from can to the onion, stir to flake salmon. Add beaten eggs, cook until eggs are set, stir. Add salt & pepper to taste & water if necessary to make broth.
This is good over rice.
I like to pour a little balsamic vinegrett on mine and eat with some wheat crackers. I love it this way.
