Salmon Loaf with Dill Sauce

Love the dill sauce! I have to admit I haven't made this salmon loaf yet. I had made another one but it was a little more dry than I was expecting so i thought I'd make some sauce to "save" the meal. This dill sauce fit the bill perfectly. Next I will make the laof in this recipe and come back to review that as well. It looks like it would be really good!

I was not as pleased with this recipe as I was hoping I would be. It was very simple to make and had a good flavor, but I was put off by the texture of it as it was very soft. I think if and when I make it next time, I will only add eggs instead of 3 and I will cook it longer.

Used 3 cans of 6 oz. salmon. Had extra large eggs, so used just 2 and used about 20 crackers, a little over a cup. Turned out great.
