One thought on “Salmon Burgers

  1. Since a recipe is just a starting point, I made these burgers with a few variations and both my husband and I enjoyed them very much. I had frozen Alaskan salmon burgers that I thawed to use. I used my husband’s favorite hot sauce as I did not have the listed type. I used regular onion as I did not have green onions. I did not have Panko crumbs so used a multigrain English muffin to make crumbs. I did have fresh ginger, fresh black pepper, soy sauce, and a farm fresh egg.
    The food processor made short work of blending ingredients. My Vita Mix made crumbs in a jiffy.
    I finished by hand with the crumbs and egg. The product was similar to a meatloaf consistency so forming burgers was easy. We will definitely have these again!
    Tonight I did not have time to let the burgers set for an hours, but they held together quite well.
    I did choose to use a small amount of coconut oil to cook the burgers. They were moist and very tasty. We used Sandwich rounds with Horseradish mayo to top them. I added a fresh tossed salad. We also had fresh guacamole with organic tortilla chips to finish our dinner.
