    My mother made this occasionally in the 1950s. I loved her salmon patties. She was a simple cook. Her idea of seasoning was salt pepper, and maybe some bacon grease. She kept the canned liquid with the salmon. She crushed the soft bones and broke up the skin and left that in also. Only thing added was 1 egg, flour, and some crushed soda crackers. The crackers still had a variety of sizes ranging from crumbs to dime sized. She used her hands to mix all of it. She fried the patties in a cast iron skillet with hot melted Crisco. I think she made fresh mustard greens cooked with bacon strips, and cornbread ( never sweetened) to eat with the salmon. When I grew up I added yellow onion or green onion. I tried fresh dill, and had to be careful to add a small amount. My children loved the patties served along side of fresh collard greens, and buttered rice that was peppered and had a little salt. I am going to make some today, its been a long time. Ty for the vid.

      @@joelove1987 I forgot all about bell peppers, I didn't add them bc one of my children hated them. These days I rarely buy the peppers bc I rarely can finish one. If I plan ahead I will make several things that contain the peppers: spaghetti sauce, macaroni salad, stir fry, seafood salad. Also, I think that by using the entire contents of the can of salmon that you get more calcium and omega 3 fatty acids. I can't understand why ppl remove the skin and bones. Recently I noticed that the grocery store has sardines with the bones removed! I have to wonder what does the industry do with skin and bones. Does it become some expensive food supplement or costly pet food? I wouldn't be surprised.

      I agree mashed potatoes go perfectly with them. my mom also made a milk gravy using some of the liquid from the can and also she would crumble either 1/2- 1 patty into the gravy while making it, that made it even better. She also crushed the bones and mixed them and the skin into the salmon because of the nutritional value. My patties,, I add which ever I have on hand, crackers or the heal of a loaf of bread or breadcrumbs. Salt and pepper onion powder, garlic powder, splash of hot sauce, 2-3 splashes of worcestershire sauce and an egg.

      My grandmother and mother both made their salmon patties with egg, saltines, salt and pepper.
      They were served with mashed potatoes, corn or green beans, and a white gravy made from bacon drippings or butter…yummy! There was always extra gravy to top the patties, too!!
      I like mine like that from time to time, but have experimented some and I enjoy making them as if they were a crab cake. Finely crushed cracker, egg, lemon juice, hot sauce, mayonnaise, parsley, onion (green or yellow), garlic, salt, cracked black pepper, and fried in a little olive oil and severed with salad. Still, nothing beats the way we grew up eating them.

    These look almost exactly like the salmon patties my grandmother made. They were great any time of day, but often we ate them on a biscuit for breakfast. (I can assure the skeptics out there that the bones really *are* soft! If they've been left in, you may not even realize that you're biting into one.) God rest my grandparents.

    We ate a lot of these when I was young. Soak 2 slices of white bread in milk. Remove bones and skin from salmon. Add the bread, leftover milk, a large spoon of pickle relish, and enough mayo so it isn’t too loose. Fry in bacon grease, that makes it taste much better…

I need to fix this sometime, although I'd probably cook them with an air fryer instead of oil these days.

    Canned salmon, bread crumbs, flour, eggs, onions, green peppers, salt and pepper. Mom made these for us in northern Minnesota, 60 miles north of Duluth, in the 1950's. It was a food desert, especially in the winter. I could barely choke them down, because I don't eat fish, but I was very hungry.

    I loved seeing this video. I grew up with my mother making basic salmon patties. Sher was Irish and French extraction. My husband is Jewish and his mother made them, also. He thought they were a Jewish food; I thought they were Irish. I guess salmon patties are an American melting pot tradition. I still make them today now that we are retired although I rarely made them for the kids when they were growing up and I don't know why. The same with meatloaf. I love the old "comfort foods" of the 50's and 60's and these fit that for me.

How does it smell? Can you please be as specific as you can? I would love to do this because I know the taste already but it didn't smell bad when I had it. If it smells bad I think I'd have my husband cook it while I leave the house lol

      @MY ASMR ADDICTION, my mother always used white cornmeal for cornbread, and coating catfish. The cornmeal now is mostly self-rising and seems too salty. I won't buy it. She always used cast iron skillets to fry everything or bake cornbread in. We never had grits with salmon patties. We ate grits every morning with bacon, eggs, and homemade buttermilk biscuits. Whenever there was leftover cornbread, my father would crumble it up in a glass and pour buttermilk in and eat it with a spoon.

    I grew with these as a little kid, and I'm late 60s now, deciding I want to make some. I found a recipe using fresh salmon, which probably tastes great, but I remember loving the teeny bones in my mom's salmon patties, especially the round ones (I'd set them aside on my plate until the end, haha). I'm glad to find this particular recipe!

  • @yolandagonzalez2705
    @yolandagonzalez2705 Рік тому +17

    My om made them the same way with just a couple of additions. About 1/8 cup each of finely diced onion and green pepper, and fresh bread crumbs rather than the dry. After forming patties she'd coat them with some dry bread crumbs and then put them in the fridge for about an hour to hydrate the bread crumbs. Good stuff. People today just don't have the glorious food memories we acquired from parents who learned to make do with what they had on hand.

We fried 'em up in vegetable oil and served plates with ketchup, french fries, and whatever canned green veggie we had. It would make 4 big patties for our little family of 4 and everyone loved them. Think I'm gonna make some this week since it's been about 20 years since I last had one.
