How Do You Keep Salmon Cakes From Falling Apart?
To keep salmon cakes from falling apart, make sure to properly drain the canned salmon and remove any skin and bones. Add some binding ingredients like breadcrumbs, eggs, or mayonnaise that help hold everything together. Make the patties evenly sized and let them chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before frying. Cook them over medium heat, and resist the urge to flip them too soon. Allow each side to cook thoroughly before flipping so that they hold their form.
