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.

SALMON WITH LEMON-HERB MARINADE
Here's one of the easiest ways to entertain: broil or grill a large salmon fillet, then adorn it with lemon wedges and rosemary sprigs. This recipe marinates the rich salmon in lemon juice, soy sauce and herbs. Serve it with a sharply flavored potato salad (like this one, with red Bliss potatoes and watercress in a yogurt-horseradish dressing) and a large bowl of greens.

SALMON CAKES WITH LEMON HERB SAUCE
These salmon cakes are super easy to make and quite savory. I just looked on the back of the Chicken of the Sea Pink Salmon package and saw the recipe. I had all the other ingredients around the house...a real plus. I replaced the horseradish with spicy brown mustard because that's what I had. The cakes are extremely flavorful alone--the sauce just adds to it. Enjoy.

Tips:
- Choose the right salmon. Fresh, wild-caught salmon is the best choice for salmon cakes. Avoid farmed salmon, as it is often lower in quality and may contain more contaminants.
- Cook the salmon properly. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough. Cook it just until it is opaque in the center, about 4 minutes per side.
- Use a variety of ingredients. Don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients in your salmon cakes. Some popular additions include bread crumbs, mayonnaise, eggs, onions, celery, and herbs.
- Season the salmon cakes well. Salmon cakes should be well-seasoned with salt, pepper, and other spices. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of Dijon mustard for extra flavor.
- Cook the salmon cakes over medium heat. Cooking the salmon cakes over medium heat will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
- Serve the salmon cakes with your favorite dipping sauce. Salmon cakes are traditionally served with tartar sauce, but you can also serve them with lemon-herb mayonnaise, remoulade, or your favorite dipping sauce.
Conclusion:
Salmon cakes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect salmon cakes every time.
