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

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.

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!

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.

  • 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.
