canned salmon?

[vermontmomma]

we got some "sustatianable" canned salmon because the price was right. now what do we do with it? it has skin and bones in it.

When I used to eat fish, I'd take as much of the skin out of the fish and leave the bones, they're soft & fine to eat. The skin tastes fishy to me. Salmon cakes are great & super easy & fast.

can of salmon
1-2 eggs
small bit of milk
crushed corn flakes
drop of lemon
sprinkle of pepper & salt

mix it all together & form patties, dip them in more crushed corn flakes to coat them. Cook them like you'd cook a pancake, cook them until they're crunchy on the outside. Tartar sauce or melted cheese goes well as a dipping sauce.

Use your favorite tuna salad recipe, and munch away!

If it's really good canned salmon, you can eat it right out of the can. I just got my first canned salmon from Vital Choice, and it is GOOD. They have no BPA in their cans, too.

Or put it on a green salad as a topping.

Keep the skin and bones -- the bones are very soft and will crumble when you mash with a fork, and they are a great source of calcium. The skin has great fat in it.

If I have canned salmon I make salmon patties or salmon salad. I pick out the big pieces of skin and bones.

For patties, I add a beaten eggs, mayo, crushed crackers, herbs (dill or tarragon, etc), squeeze of lemon, salt and pepper. Fry up in a pan with oil of choice (for this I'd use sunflower or peanut).

Salmon salad - just mayo, lemon juice, herbs, salt, pepper. Sometimes a little pickle.

I didn't know about how great calcium the bone has but that makes sense!

OK this too!

canned salmon spread right onto crackers or spooned over salad is the #1 lunch in my husband's office. As others have said, no need to do anything to it.

I mix it with left over mashed potato and fry for breakfast. Or mix with a little creme fraiche and dill and blend for a tasty pate/dip. Or add to pasta sauce.
