This is the way I was taught to make Salmon patties by my Mom in the fifties. I still make it this way and it's wonderful. So easy and so tasty!

I just had these today for lunch, my mom fixed them the same way, they are wonderful, one of our favorite lunches!

I made mine this way until I married. My husband likes me to add minced onion. It is good both ways.

If you don't have crackers, a couple tablespoons of flour works well too to hold the fish together. I like to add a dash of fresh lime or lemon.

...my Mother made these for our Catholic family on Fridays (no meat day) in grade school and high school (the 50s and 60s) until I went to Vietnam in the Navy...what a cook...never anything like 'Mom's' cooking since...it was beyond description to this day...she had a natural cooking/baking talent/ability...the 'best' Mom's are 'our' Moms!!!

well, I am going to give this a try in about 30 minutes.... I will be serving this with a side of white rice and some sweetpeas..... soooo here goes nothing!!... if you smell smoke... it's coming from my kitchen...

This is the way my mom made them, just simply great... no other words...

Try this tip as well. Fry 8 or 10 slices of bacon untill well browned, save drippings. Crumble the bacon into your mixture, and fry patties in drippings. It adds texture and good smoky taste.

Wow, Quick, Easy, and Simple!!!

This is a good base recipe. I prefer Ritz type crackers over saltines and also add finely chopped red bell peppers and a squirt of dijon mustard for flavor.

My grandmother made these with leftover mashed real potatoes instead of crackers....loved them. Don't wait too long to use the potatoes though, it will be watery!

To eliminate salmon odor while cooking . Set a small dish of vinegar next to the stove, NO ODOR. And I also like using onions in the recipe.

I also add lemon pepper seasoning & onion. It is so good.

You can also use bread crumbs instead of crackers adds more flavor. This is how my friend taught me when she made them for her dad after school and her mom worked night turn. It was fun for the both of us! JMO

This is the way my mom made them, I had forgotten ratios and went in search of her southern cooking recipe. We ate these at least once a month back in the 50s and 60s. I made these and they were just like my mom's! She served with biscuits, green peas, mashed potatoes and white gravy. Oh my goodness. So good. Thank you for posting this, I had to search quite a few recipes before I found this. Now I know where to look.
