- Use Quality Ingredients: Opt for fresh herbs, vegetables, and spices to enhance the flavor of your salmon cakes.
- Don't Overmix: Mix the ingredients just until combined to prevent the salmon cakes from becoming tough.
- Chill the Mixture: Chilling the salmon cake mixture for at least 30 minutes helps the flavors meld and makes it easier to form the cakes.
- Shape the Cakes Gently: When forming the salmon cakes, handle them gently to prevent them from breaking apart.
- Pan-Fry to Perfection: Pan-fry the salmon cakes over medium-low heat to ensure they cook evenly and develop a golden crust.
