Canned Salmon Recipes

[pickardjw]

What do y'all make with canned salmon? All the recipes I see are how to can it, not what you do with it after. Or they're recipes with commercially canned salmon and I'm not sure if that's the same thing as home canned salmon.

Salmon patties are a staple for us. I don't use a recipe, but it's pretty similar to this one:

I add a little mayo if it needs moisture.

I think any recipe for commercially canned salmon will work for home canned as well. It's the same thing, but usually better quality done at home.

I like mixing with mayo and diced pickles and making a spread for a sandwich and chips or on Ritz crackers with a beer or whatever. Good snack in hunting camp! Same goes for home canned tuna as well.

Hmm, maybe it's the different look of home canned vs commercial that's throwing me off. The home canned stuff looked so much better I figured it might be used in different ways.

Well, unless it's some kind of specialty item, they're not exactly putting prime king or silver in cans these days. And when they can pinks half the can is skin and bones at times. Skinless, boneless home-canned king is the same process and food- just waaaaay better!

I dont have recipes to be able to just post up , and we use many variations. So google away until you see a recipe that suits you.
But some go toos are : Salmon Patties, Salmon loaf , Lunch spread (mix like you would your favorite tuna salad) , Creamed salmon on toast, salmon alfredo, Salmon chowder.

Most of the canned salmon recipes also work well with left over baked or grilled salmon also .

It's not the best, I did a bunch several years ago and ended up making seafood stew with most of it.  Lately, I cold smoke, salt cure and freeze it and it tastes about 1,500,000% better than the canned stuff.

Canned salmon is what it is, and that puts it near the bottom of the culinary scale. Typically most people have only canned "extra" salmon, when they get a lot all at once. While there is something to be said for salmon that is shelf-stable for years, the quality is obviously lessened; you can't cook it for 90 minutes under pressure and not expect it to be. It is a way to use those extra fish outside of months or years in the freezer and turn them into something edible and nutritious.

How does it compare to home canned tuna? Our family eats a lot of that and really likes it. I was thinking of doing salmon.

I think you will find that it compares very favorably. We use it interchangeable for anything canned tuna works for.

Like all things fish, what comes out depends highly on what goes in! How much better is your home-canned tuna over the standard commercial stuff? Expect the same with canned salmon.

Home canned tuna isn't comparable to store bought, that's for sure.  I'll give a try and see if it's worth it.

Salmon patties. One of the best meals ever.

I've been meaning to try salmon patties in the air fryer. Haven't made them since getting that little contraption. Always had a tough time getting the right consistency.
