REC salmon croquettes
 

I'm working on this recipe right now, I used a can of sardines I had (15oz.)
and used half baking potato and half sweet potato (15 oz.), since they did a
'to taste' thing on the saltNpepper I did what I usually do which is sort of
spread the main ingredients out and sprinkle over them the SnP, probably
about 1/2 tsp each, i also added about an 1/8 tsp of ground cayenne . On my
way to store to buy onion. will ad about 1/4 cup chopped onion.

Welllll, the taste is ok but maybe it needed more potato? is too 'wet'?
needs to be 'stiffer' got it baking in the oven as a loaf.

I haven't made croquettes in "forever" and never did make them much
when I did. Looking at the recipe, I'd try only one egg instead of
two for starters and I'd cut back that Worcestershire sauce to 1tsp at
the most. It's something I add it in drops, not teaspoon/tablespoon
measurements.

Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can get.

I finished baking it and it tasted good, firmed up. Just work on it next
time.

I thought croquettes were sort of cone-shaped. They always were at my
house. Salmon Croquettes was one of my mom's favorite things to
make. We never used potato or W. sauce, though, just made a really
thick bechamel as the base.

They are really good with a white sauce with hard-boiled egg chopped
up in it. Some people make a white sauce with peas - I don't like
peas.

My mom was a Betty Crocker cook, yech, anyway she used their recipe, i think
which used either bread or cracker crumbs with fish, egg, onion, etc..
Yet hers were always tasty and firm ,which due to some sort of mental short
coming, i cannot get mine firm, even following a recipe. : (
