Steps:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard, Old Bay, salt, and pepper. Add the diced salmon, ¼ cup of the panko, the scallions, the celery, and the dill. Gently mix until uniformly combined.
- Place the remaining 1 cup of panko in a shallow dish or pie plate. Using a ⅓-cup measure, scoop the salmon mixture and form into a compact cake about 1 inch high. Place the salmon cake into the panko and gently coat it all over in crumbs. Repeat with the remaining mixture to form about 9 cakes. (At this point, you can refrigerate the salmon cakes for a few hours until ready to cook, if you'd like.)
- Heat the oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Place half of the salmon cakes in the skillet and cook without moving until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Carefully flip the cakes and cook until second side is golden brown, about 2 minutes more. Reduce the heat to medium if the cakes are browning too quickly. Transfer cakes to paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining cakes (no need to change the oil). Serve warm.
- Note: If buying a skin-on salmon fillet, purchase 1⅓ pounds of fish to yield 1¼ pounds of fish after skinning.
- Make-Ahead: The salmon cakes can be fully cooked and refrigerated up to several hours ahead of time. To reheat: preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place the salmon cakes in the oven and cook until crisp on the exterior and warm throughout, 10 to 15 minutes. The cakes may also be frozen for up to 3 months; defrost in the refrigerator before reheating.
- Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cooked salmon cakes can be frozen for up to 3 months. Once cool, lay them out on one (or more) foil-lined baking sheet(s) and cover them loosely with plastic wrap. Freeze the patties in a single layer for about an hour, then remove them from the freezer. Wrap the cakes individually in plastic wrap and then put them together in a freezer bag or airtight container. Before serving, defrost in the refrigerator before reheating.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Line a baking sheet with foil and place the salmon on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and roast for 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Cool to room temperature.
- When the fish is cool enough to handle, flake the salmon into bite sized pieces using a fork and transfer to a large bowl. If any juices begin to collect in the bottom of the bowl, drain the fish before moving forward with the remainder of the recipe.
- In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, dijon, worcestershire sauce, egg, pepper and parsley.
- Add the mayonnaise mixture to the salmon and, carefully, fold together being careful not to break up the fish too much. Gently fold in the breadcrumbs.
- Form the salmon mixture into 6 patties and transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment. Chill for 15-20 minutes. (Salmon cakes can be frozen at this point. Wrap each cake tightly in plastic wrap and then foil. Unwrap and cook from frozen by following the instructions below.)
- While the salmon cakes chill, make the sauce by combining the mayonnaise, lemon juice, lemon zest, mustard, salt, pepper and dill in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the salmon cakes and cook over medium heat until golden, approximately 3-4 minutes. (Longer if frozen) Turn the salmon cakes over with a spatula. Cook until golden brown, crispy and cooked through, approximately 3 minutes.
- Transfer to a serving platter and serve immediately with lemon dill sauce and lemon wedges, if desired.

HEALTHIER SALMON CAKES WITH LIME DILL SAUCE
This preparation is a "healthier" version of the traditional salmon cakes with tartar sauce. The lime dill sauce is delicious on Maryland-style crab cakes as well. This recipe came from a local periodical.

Steps:
- To make the salmon cakes, first mix together yogurt, Parmesan cheese, egg, mustard, chives, parsley, shallot, garlic, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
- Gently mix salmon and panko breadcrumbs into the yogurt mixture.
- Divide salmon-yogurt mixture into 8 equal portions and shape into 2-inch cakes. Refrigerate for 1 to 4 hours.
- Meanwhile, prepare the lime dill sauce. In a medium bowl, stir together yogurt, lime juice, lime zest, dill, salt and pepper. Mix well and refrigerate until well chilled.
- To finish the salmon cakes, spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray and place over medium high heat.
- Slide cakes into the hot skillet and cook about 4 minutes per side or until golden brown and heated through.
- Serve the cakes hot with the chilled lime dill sauce.
Tips:
- For perfectly flaky salmon cakes, use a combination of fresh and canned salmon. The fresh salmon adds a delicate flavor, while the canned salmon provides structure and moisture.
- Don't overmix the salmon cake mixture. Overmixing can make the cakes tough.
- Use a large skillet to cook the salmon cakes. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking.
- Serve the salmon cakes immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Dill sauce is a classic choice, but you could also try tartar sauce, remoulade, or even a simple lemon-butter sauce.
Conclusion:
Salmon cakes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They're also a great way to use up leftover salmon. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a meal that is both satisfying and nutritious.
