Ingredients
  • Cakes:
  • 1 1/2 lb. skinless boneless salmon fillet
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup fine fresh bread crumbs
  • 1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp. freshly grated lime juice
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
  • Dipping sauce:
  • 2/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/3 cup fresh tarragon
  • 1 1/3 cups sour cream
  • 3 Tbsp. finely chopped fresh chives
  • 1 tsp. fresh lime juice

Directions
  1. Pat salmon dry and with a sharp knife cut roughly into 1/3"-cubes
  2. In a medium bowl lightly beat egg and gently stir in salmon and remaining ingredients until just combined.
  3. Heat a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderate heat and, working in batches, drop 2-tablespoon measures of salmon mixture about 1 inch apart into skillet. Cook cakes unil undersides are golden, about 1 minute. Turn cakes over and cook until just cooked through, about 1 minute more. Transfer cakes as cooked to a platter.
  4. To prepare the dipping sauce, pulse the mayonnaise, tarragon and 1/3 cup sour cream together in a food processor until smooth.
  5. Transfer mixture to a bowl and stir in remaining cup sour cream, chives, lime juice, salt and pepper to taste.

You are so right, fresh salmon, makes all the difference. I have a similar recipe which uses cornmeal instead of bread crumbs. Your sauce sounds delicious. Great post.


I agree, fresh salmon makes the difference. Awesome post.
