I grew up eating these with pinto beans and corn bread. We didn't have much, but my mother always made sure we were well fed. I miss you Mom.

No fluff, no talking...just the recipe. You get an A+!

My mom would remove skin and bones from 4 cans. She would add diced onion, 4 eggs, 2 sleeves crushed saltines. She would form the patties and fry in vegetable oil til golden. We ate them a few times per month with cubed potatoes and canned spinach. Loved them then, love them now. Our family of 7 was thankful

I was raised on salmon patties.....mother called them salmon croquettes. Love them, even cold.

Really takes me back to when my mom and grandma were alive. I sure do miss them. I'm old and just waiting to be called home.

My dad made these when I was a kid. He would mash it up and mix egg and saltines. He'd serve it in sandwich form. Mayo, tomato and lettuce. Delicious. It's been decades since then and I'm making them tomorrow for my dad and I. Thanks!

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.

My mom used to make these for us when I was a kid. I haven't had them in decades. This is the first cooking video that's brought a tear to my eye.

None of the talk talk talk of other vids. Straight to the point.☆☆☆☆☆

My very elderly neighbor used to call these "goldfish cakes". She raised her kids on mill wages in the depression and could squeeze a nickel until the buffalo bellowed. Really miss her 😔

My mom made without a doubt the best salmon patties known to man. Use to love them with some cheese grits. OMG, I was in heaven eating this.

My family has made this before I was born. I’m 74 now. My wife made it for our family. My three sons loved it.

My mom used 1 egg, crushed saltines, a dash of black pepper, and sometimes a little green onion. She served it with lemon wedges, canned corn, and a green salad.

My daddy was from Louisiana and he made the best salmon croquettes. They only called for a can of drained salmon, some diced bell pepper and onion a little yellow cornmeal and an egg. He'd fry them in a big cast iron skillet. I can still taste them. Your recipe is a little fancy for me, but different strokes for different folks. Thanks for sharing.

This reminds me of my late mother and all of the great things that she used to prepare. She was a classic southern cook.

I really liked reading the reviews. I'm the youngest of 7 children from a farm family. Canned salmon was a great treat generally on Fridays. I am in my late 60s so I make them once a month with an agg, a bit of milk and Seasoning. Fresh buttery mashed potatoes with gravy of milk and flour as side.. Great memories relived, thanks all 😢

My Mom made it too.0ur family didn’t seem to like fish, but we liked salmon patties and were so grateful for this food from a can.❤

My Granny used to make me these! I can't wait until tomorrow I'm gonna cook some up! God bless 🙏✝️👑

This cherished tradition holds a special place in my memory, as it was lovingly prepared by my mother. Her absence is deeply felt, and I find myself yearning for those moments of culinary delight.

Sure glad I'm not alone . Salmon patties, fried potatoes, any fresh veggies! Love it to this day! Thx.

Growing up in Kentucky, “Salmon Croquets” was the only way I ever ate Salmon until moving to California But the fresh salmon in the pacific north west is in a class by itself

Great video. No excessive talking, and straight to the point. I look forward to trying your recipe. Thank you.

My mother ......rest her soul use to make the exact same recipe. They're very taste! Thanks for sharing!

LOVE, LOVE the bones!!! Calcium galore. Love, love this simple, no nonsense video. ⚘⚘⚘🐟🐠🐡

This was a great fave when i was a kid. Getting the bones was like a prize.

Canned salmon is so underrated!

Quick and simple easy recipe with no unnecessary talking. Just what I was looking for. You can always use the top of the can to drain the water out instead of your fingers.Thank you!

My mom made these when I was a kid growing up in the 60s and 70s. Dad loved them.

My mom use to make these very patties when I was I kid. At the store I would see the cans of salmon and just keep walking. I never thought about making them. Thanks to your video, I now know how simple they are to make. I will NO Longer skip them at the store!

These were a staple in our house growing up, especially in the mid 70s when my Dad lost his job. Can also be made substituting canned tuna for salmon.

Funny most of the comments on this include the word "mama." Mine does, too. She was a whiz in the kitchen but it's the simple things like salmon patties (NOT croquettes) that I most remember. Mom's gone but my love for this food is endless.

I am 71 years of age! Sometimes I get the taste for salmon Crockett s but don't want to take all day to fix it! This video gets thumbs up 👍🏾👍🏾 and a WOW and double WOW for the easy and quick process!! I love mine with rice 😋!!

I always run out of breakfast ideas and I searched salmon Patties this morning and came across your video. Simple, quick, informative, and inspiring. I’m about to go try it out now. Thank you so much. From South Carolina. ❤️👍🏾

Looks so good. After 60 yrs I’m finally going to do it. Can’t wait!

My mom used to make these when I was a child in the 90s, they were one of my favorite dinners back in the day.

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!

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.

My Mom used to make her own bread crumbs by putting bread in the toaster and running it 2-3 times until it was almost burned. Then she would pulverize it in a bowl. We tried your method exactly and it worked out great……the kids ate it all up and they wanted more!!!!! Thank you kindly for your wonderful recipe video.

Born and raised in Oklahoma. My mom used to make this all the time when I was growing up. Here is what I do now as an adult. Make two large salmon patties, top with mashed potatoes, corn and butter. Kind of like a shepards pie/kfc bowl.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us...I was asking everyone in my family about how my mom made her salmon patties...you just told me,leaving out the hot spice...thank you I am 81yrs old and I just discovered how to make them...your a blessing😅

Ah salmon patties. Another wonderful meal that conjures up time spent with my grandparents as a kid. I always loved knowing when my grandmother was fixing this particular dish and we kids would get to have it with them. I need to fix this sometime, although I'd probably cook them with an air fryer instead of oil these days.

My grandmother made these for our family for decades here in SC. Nothing fancy but I thought they were good with a little ketchup. I really miss her & this video helped. Thank you for posting.

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.

Ahhhh yeah these are delicious 😁 I use diced onions, eggs, breadcrumbs and red pepper flakes (no extra salt) and drain the juice for stray cats outside. Tuna & canned mackerel come out good too

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…

When this vid got recommended, I immediately clicked it. My mind flew straight to my childhood when a distant relative would cook these for New Year's Day as a staple item. We'd all gather at her house & enjoy the heck out out of her simple, but delicious spread. I've got more than a few cans of salmon just waiting for this opportunity. Genuinely glad I found it. I never knew how to actually cook it ( or even tried), until now. Thanks! 😊

Yes my Mother always crushed the bones added a beaten egg, diced onion and crushed saltine crackers, shaped them and fried them. While I do not like Salmon, I have always LOVED Salmon patties!! Thank you for the great memories. ❤

My mother called them fish cakes. I was a picky eater as a child but I loved these. With ketchup. So good! She only used egg and cracker crumbs and probably minced onion. I'm hungry.

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.

Almost the same as mine, I use diced onions, garlic and old bay instead of the powders and serve on burger rolls with seafood cocktail sauce (Ketchup & horseradish mix). Also works with canned Mackerel.

My mom made these for us when I was a kid.

I am ashamed to admit this but I am 65 years and "Never" ate Salmon. Believe it or not! I do love all other seafood but never had the desire to try Salmon. I found the exact can shown in your video and wil make it for lunch tomorrow. It looks wonderful. Ty for sharing. avb

My great grandmother made what she called Indian pancakes! It was a can of red salmon,egg,can of creamed corn, some flour, onion powder, pepper some baking powder. Mix together, heat oil and fry til done, then we put applesauce on them , delicious 👍

Mama made them on Friday fish nights. 1 Can Salmon, 2 eggs, a cup or two of corn flakes, 1/2 cup milk, salt, pepper, paprika. Served with Applesauce, Baked Beans, and Potato chips. I put a dollop or two of applesauce on my pattie and still do. I actually mixed the beans in the applesauce and also dipped my chips in it.

Thanks! I work at a group home and salmon patties was on the menu today. Never made them before and you video was quick and simple to follow! Patties were delicious.

We just did the salmon, egg, a pinch of onion powder and crushed crackers, not bread crumbs. Momma would make gravy with bacon grease, flour, the salmon juice and some milk. The black pepper went in the gravy, but not all that other stuff. On a cold day this was heaven in your mouth. And BTW, who on Earth would throw away the bones or go to the trouble to pick out the skin. That's just sissified.

Thanks for this video. Been sitting on 2 cans of salmon for 6 months and didn’t know what to do with it. I had all the ingredients except the breadcrumbs. I added flour instead, and they came out great. Cooking time was perfect as well.

My mom made these at least once a week growing up. The only ingredients she used were white corn meal and egg. They were soooo good. I don’t make them often because of the smell but when I get a craving I do mix up a batch. Yum.

We canned our own fish, I believe it was grouper. Then made patties like you are speaking of with crackers , egg, onion and fried in bacon grease. Then we had white gravy, biscuits and fried taters. OMG, my mouth is watering now! The best from Alabama countryside!

Oh, Man. My mom used to fix them like that all the time when I was growing up. I will eat any kind of seafood, but these things are still my favorite. Such a simple comfort food. These and crab cakes just really hit the spot at anytime. I could really go for a sandwich and a beer.

Just made mine without cayenne pepper, and added extra lemon juice it was delicious

Thanks for the video and recipe. Just like so many others, I had forgotten about salmon patties, which my mom made occasionally in the 50’s & 60’s. I will make some this week following your recipe. I remember cringing when I found bones. I’m a picky, picky, picky eater

A childhood favorite. I'm thankful I grew up around good cooking. I enjoyed a lot of good homemade foods. Pierogi's is another one I miss.

As the person said below, No fluff, no talking....just the recipe. and yes you deserve an A+ I subscribed on this recipe.

Nice. I usually add a little minced onion and minced dill pickle to mine. Gives it a little "tang." Great recipe.

Just made these with some leftover salmon filet. Instead of cayenne I put a couple tablespoons of Franks Red Hot. They were amazing. Thank you. Great recipe.

I grew up on them, and still make them! I have played with different configurations. I do like your simple recipe, and will try it.. Thanks a bunch!

Absolutely delicious. Many, many ways to make them. Your way sounds great. They looked perfect.

So glad to find your channel. We grew up on pink salmon patties and they are always delicious! Mom had to feed 10 of us and let me tell you...it wasn't easy. We planted food gardens and raised chickens. But we so appreciated dinner! I now have a husband who fishes in the ocean bringing home massive amounts of salmon, cod and halibut. I've pressure cooked smoked and regular salmon. I will definitely be trying this recipe!

My husband grew up with these, I never made them in my life so I want to thank you for the recipe because it came out pretty good IMO!

I miss being a kid when I see this kind of stuff. Yes I can cook this, but I wish I were back in my great grandmother's kitchen.

I have not made many salmon patties in my life, but of the few KZfaq videos I have used, this is by far the best tasting and very simple to follow.. And it got the picky mom approval.. Seems weird to say the table has turned with the parent now being the picky one lol.. I doubled the recipe.. I added 2 stalks of green onion for the little bit of freshness and subbed the Ritz Crackers for the bread crumbs. Thanks for sharing with us.

Same here, but we served them with a béchamel white sauce with peas. So good 👍🏼

Excellent presentation! Made my mouth water together with bringing back childhood memories. Thank you for doing this.

This reminds me of childhood ! My Mom made these often & the whole family loved them !

My mom gave me a can of salmon, I’m gonna try this tonight. It looks very good and easy to make.

Thanks for the video. I haven't had salmon patties in years. I never knew how to cook them.

I needed something to make real quick and this came in handy. I appreciate you getting straight to the info...no long dragged out video. Thank you!

was looking for a good recipe and found your video. They are sooooo delicious! I will be making these on a regular basis. Thanks so much for the recipe and instructions. Praise God and thankful for the food and your wonderful, easy to follow recipe! Have a blessed day!

These look delicious. I never thought of putting mustard in them. What a good idea. Thank you.

My grandmother would break up saltine crackers, canned salmon, eggs, salt, and some shredded potato. Very simple. Sometimes, a little diced onion. Both ways good to me. I miss her cooking. At least she taught me some good recipes.

Brings back childhood memories. Great northern beans and salmon patties...

This is a regular recipe in our home, I usually serve it along side soup beans, cornbread, and fried taters. Also I add diced onion to my patties.

Great easy and simply explained video (recipe). Thank you so much.

Mom served hers with maple syrup sometimes and with lemon n mashed potatoes other times. We loved these both ways.

Quick, Simple, to the point! AWESOME!

Very easy and educational video on your recipe. I will definitely try it! Thank you for sharing.

An excellent pantry recipe, made of stuff you don't have to buy fresh. I make similar fish cakes with tuna and sardines, but I have also made them with fresh fish, just pan-fried and crumbled in the place of the canned salmon. I also like to add grated potato and peas, to give it a nicer presentation.

My grocery store's fish market makes salmon patties with chopped spinach and feta cheese. Delicious!

Thank you for your upload. I believe my Father made his just this way. I'm trying it this evening. Love the Dijon mustard add! ✌️

Man...my mom use to cook those all the time...been YEARS since I've had them! Thanks for posting! I'm going to have to make me some now!

Man, this recipe looks wonderful. Can’t wait to try it. 👍

Thank you so much! I have been making these canned salmon patties the exact same way for years with the optional ingredient of mayonnaise. I will try it also with some Greek yogurt as suggested. Healthy, nutritional and tasty. Thumbs up!

Easy and straight to the point ii love it cooking for my three children tonight😃😃😃they love these

Yummm! my mother made her salmon croquettes with some pre-cooked golden potatoes as a binder. I love me some salmon croquettes.😍😍😍

For people that are on a gluten or wheat free diet : I use cooked rice or instant mashed potatoes in cases like this. I prefer the mashed potato flakes to roll my fried chicken in, great flavor, and a beautiful golden brown finish. Some of the instant mashed potatoes are flavored and that makes what you're cooking even better. PS my mom didn't make canned fish anything except for tuna sandwiches. I had to get a lot of my cooking out of cook books. My parents were raised on ranches so supper was beef steaks, or occasionally pork chops, with pot roast for Sunday dinner that slow cooked while we were at church services. I just wish I could afford to eat like that now!!

I appreciate the short video... you really had me with the "total time" & then smacked me in the face with a lot of ingredients, lol. I've recently come into a decent pile of salmon.. & I've been looking at a lot of different recipes trying to figure out how to eat it.. This recipe looks as good as most.

I LOVE these things, my mouth is watering!!!

Wow. You make it look so easy. Thank you for this video!

Growing up, almost everyone ate this in my community. Everyone removed the bones back in the 70s and 80s, but most people I know usually leave them in these days. Adapting a classic dish to modern times, I guess.
