Salmon Cakes

Salmon Cakes

Salmon cakes are a type of seafood dish made from canned or fresh salmon that is mixed with various ingredients and then formed into patties and cooked. The patties are typically breaded and fried or baked until they are crispy and golden brown on the outside and tender on the inside.

The specific ingredients used in salmon cakes can vary, but common additions include breadcrumbs, eggs, onions, garlic, herbs, and spices. Some recipes also include vegetables like celery, peppers, or carrots.

Salmon cakes can be served as a main dish, often accompanied by a side salad or vegetable, or as an appetizer or snack. They are a popular dish in many parts of the world, including the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
