Wild Salmon Cakes
FROM CAFÉ 440
“We like this recipe because salmon is a great Northwest
resource,” says Martha Schuetz, co-owner of Café 440. “We
use an amazing Alaskan wild salmon in this dish.” Schuetz
suggests salmon cakes as a nice alternative to crab cakes if
you’re cooking for yourself at home because it’s more
affordable. Make these cakes a little larger than the 2-ounce
balls called for, and put them in a bun for a salmon burger.
1lb. wild salmon, cooked and cooled
1/2 yellow onion, 3 stalks celery, 1 red pepper (skinned and
seeded) – all diced small, and sautéed until soft, and cooled
1 roasted jalapeño, finely diced
1/4 cup corn kernels
1 tsp. chopped garlic
salt and pepper
1 egg
1/4 cup mayonnaise
juice of 1 lemon
1 tblsp. chopped cilantro
3/4 cup breadcrumbs
oil for sautéing
Mix all ingredients together well, except
breadcrumbs. Portion into 2-ounce balls. Roll each ball in
breadcrumbs. Let rest in the refrigerator for one hour. Saute
until golden brown and hot.
