Ingredients:
1/4 pound of salmon boiled
3 slices of sandwich bread
2 eggs
2 cups of milk
salt and pepper
thyme
1 round oven pan about 9' in diameter
Directions:
Separate the egg yolks and egg whites. Boil the salmon with water &
teaspoon of salt. In a small bowl soak the bread slices in milk for a few seconds or until
they are saturated. In large bowl mix the bread and the salmon (This will be very mushy).
Add the two egg yolks to the bread and salmon mixture. Stir well and add the salt, pepper,
and thyme.
In a separate bowl whip the egg whites until firm. Add the egg whites very
slowly into the salmon mixture trying not to break them. Now you will need the round oven
pan. Try to use a pan about 9 inches in diameterand 3 inches deep. We try to have about
1.5-2 inches of salmon mixture covering the pan. Grease the pan with butter or shortening.
Pour the salmon mixture into the pan and smooth it out to the sides. Cook in the oven at
350 for about 20 minutes. One can test with a regular knife too by inserting it into the
pan. If the knife is relatively clean upon removeal then salmon cake is ready. |
