SALMON TIDBITS/SALMONETTES 
1 (15 oz.) can salmon (pink or red)
1 whole egg
1 heaping tsp. baking powder
1/2 c. flour

Drain salmon and reserve 1/4 cup of juice. Place salmon in mixing bowl, drop in egg and mix thoroughly with fork. Add flour and stir. This mixture will be thick. Add baking powder to 1/4 cup salmon juice and beat with fork until foamy. If it does not foam, the baking powder may be old.

Pour into salmon mixture and mix together. Mixture will now be thin. Using iced tea spoon, drop mixture into 2 inches of hot oil. Cook 1 to 2 minutes. You may add onion or garlic if you like. Serve hot or cold.

DO NOT MIX AHEAD. Cook within 15 minutes of mixing. Makes approximately 30 salmon balls. These can be served with hot sauce or Dill Mayonnaise (1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon snipped fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dried dill and 1 teaspoon lemon juice).
