• In a small bowl, combine egg, soy sauce, lemon juice, and salt; add to pepper mixture, tossing gently to combine. Form mixture into 8 patties.

PERFECT SALMON BURGERS

Steps:

• Cut three-quarters of the salmon into 1/4-inch pieces. Put in a large bowl. Cut the rest of the salmon into chunks; transfer the chunks to a food processor along with the mustard, mayonnaise, lemon juice, lemon zest and cayenne. Pulse to make a paste. Add the pureed salmon mixture to the bowl with the diced salmon. Add the scallions, 2 tablespoons panko, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper to taste. Gently mix until just combined.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and brush with olive oil. Divide the salmon mixture into 4 mounds on the parchment paper. With damp hands, pat into 4-inch-wide, 3/4-inch-thick patties. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler. Spread the remaining 1 cup panko on a plate. Press both sides of the salmon patties in the panko. Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties (in batches if necessary) and cook until browned on the bottom, 3 to 4 minutes, adjusting the heat if necessary. Turn and cook until the other side is browned and the patties feel springy in the center, 3 to 4 more minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain; season with salt.
• Meanwhile, arrange the buns, cut-side up, on a broiler pan and broil until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve the patties on the buns; top with tartar sauce and arugula.

SALMON BURGERS

Steps:

• For the patties: Mix together the egg, mayonnaise, mustard, seafood seasoning, lemon juice and hot sauce in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Fold in the salmon, scallions and panko until the mixture is combined again. Form into 4 patties, then set aside.
• Place a large skillet over a medium-high heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the patties and cook until golden and crisp, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel.
• For the caper mayo: Mix together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, capers, hot sauce, salt and pepper.
• To assemble: Spread some of the caper mayo on the bottom of a toasted bun. Top with a salmon patty, lettuce, tomato and pickle. Spread the other half of the bun with a bit more of the mayo and place on top. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Serve.

• Add the onion, celery, pimento (if using), lemon juice, horseradish, garlic, and pepper, and mix again.
• Form the mixture into 4 patties. Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook the patties, covered, until golden brown. (We began cooking on the grill and finished in the oven). Carefully flip the patties and cook the other side for 5 minutes.
• Finish baking in the oven until golden brown.
