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.

During the Depression, Mom's tasty salmon loaf was a welcome change from the usual meat loaf everyone made to stretch a meal. I still like a lot of the make-do meals of those days, but this loaf is one of my favorites. -Dorothy Bateman, Carver, Massachusetts

This is so quick and easy to make. You can also use canned or fresh salmon. It works well with both. Note: If using fresh salmon be sure that you use 1 1/2 cup milk as you dont want the salmon to be dry. This should be moist and tender.

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.
