CHEF JOHN'S SALMON LOAF



Chef John's Salmon Loaf image

Canned salmon is a great, inexpensive source of proteins and omegas, and you may have stocked up on a few cans but not known what to do with them. This tasty shelter-in-place salmon loaf is so good for you! While salmon right out of the can may not be the most appealing thing to look at, this salmon loaf is so delicious that we can surely forgive some of its visual shortcomings. Remember, looks are less important than personality (and taste!) and this easy salmon loaf is proof of that. Serve with your favorite tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, or hot, white cream sauce.

Time 1h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

¼ cup salted butter
⅓ cup diced onion
2 (7 ounce) cans red salmon, drained
½ cup finely crushed saltine cracker crumbs
½ teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
3 large eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Generously butter a loaf pan.
  • Melt butter over medium heat in a saute pan until bubbling. Toss in onion, give the pan a quick shake, and stir with a wooden spoon; cook for 1 minute. Turn off the heat and allow to cool.
  • Place salmon in a large mixing bowl and mash with a fork. Add cracker crumbs, salt, cayenne pepper, Worcestershire sauce, rice vinegar, butter, and onions; mix and mash with a spatula or spoon until smooth.
  • Separate eggs, adding whites to a clean glass, metal, or ceramic bowl and adding yolks to salmon mixture. Mix egg yolks and salmon until well combined.
  • Whisk whites to medium stiff peaks. Gently fold into salmon mixture in 2 additions.
  • Transfer salmon mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula to even it out and shake and tap the pan to remove any air bubbles.
  • Bake in the center of the preheated oven until a toothpick comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes, then carefully turn loaf out onto a cutting board. Slice and serve.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups grape tomatoes
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the grill
3 cloves garlic, finely grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme, plus 3 sprigs
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 17- to 18-ounce tube polenta, cut into 12 rounds
4 6-ounce skin-on center-cut salmon fillets, preferably wild
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium high. Toss the tomatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, the garlic, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper on a large piece of foil. Add the thyme sprigs and bring up the edges of the foil slightly. Pour in the wine and fold the edges together to form a packet; set aside.

  • Divide the salmon and polenta among plates. Spoon the tomatoes and juices over the top. Sprinkle with the chives.

BETTY CROCKER'S SALMON LOAF



Betty Crocker's Salmon Loaf image

A family favorite from way back, the recipe can be found in one of Mom's OLDEST Betty Crocker cookbooks under the title of, "Seafood Loaf." Mom always made it with salmon, and we always cleaned our plates when she made it. What's best is this makes a LOT of loaf for a big family. You can use canned tuna, but our favorite was always canned salmon.
