Crispy Wild-Caught Salmon Cakes

I’ve always loved crab cakes, even as a child. I realized there are never any gluten-free or egg-free versions of crab cakes or salmon cakes at restaurants, so it was time to experiment! I like to use the Wild Planet Boneless & Skinless Sockeye Salmon for this recipe.

Instructions

  1. Using a clean towel squeeze salmon to remove excess water. Flake salmon with a fork to restore texture.
