Suggested Serving & Holding

It is not necessary to discard skin, bones or fish juices before serving unless your recipe calls for lump canned sockeye.

Spreads and Dips:

  • Smashing it all up! This is for those of us who have come to know and love the calcium benefit and great taste of pressure cooked canned sockeye.  Smash thoroughly until mixed well the entire contents of one can of Otolith’s canned sockeye salmon. This mixture may be added to any number of healthy emulsifiers such as creamy cheeses, mayonnaise, or cheese spreads such as “cream cheese”.
  • Alternately, reserve the juice, and remove the salmon skin and largest bones found through the center of the canned sockeye portion before mixing thoroughly into your favorite dip or spread recipe.  Add juice back to mixture and combine well. This mixture may be added to any number of healthy emulsifiers such as creamy cheeses and mayonnaise, or combined with cheese spreads such as “cream cheese”.
  • Recommendation: Each time you prepare and eat Otolith’s canned sockeye salmon, using your fingers, smash a small salmon bone and familiarize your self with its texture and consistency.  These bones contain valuable and absorbable calcium that is essential to our body’s bone health and wellness. Leave as many of these soft and nutritious bones in your canned sockeye salmon dip and spreads as you are comfortably willing to tolerate.  Challenge yourself each time to remove fewer pressure cooked bones and enjoy more benefits!

Salmon Cakes:

  • Ingredients: (1) 7.5 oz canned sockeye salmon, 3 Tbs high heat oil for frying, 1 egg, 3 Tbs bread crumbs – divided, 1/2 small onion – minced, 1 celery stalk – minced, red pepper – minced, 1 Tbs fresh parsely or other herb – chopped and and ground pepper to taste.
  • Combine all ingredients except oil, including the juice of your canned sockeye salmon.  Divide mixture into 4 equal parts and shape them into patties.  Press each patty lightly into bread crumbs to barely coat.
  • Heat lightly oiled skillet to the smoke point then cook all four patties in hot skillet with oil until browned on both sides, approximately 7 minutes on each side.  Cover while cooking to avoid spatter and maximize the effectiveness of the heat.
  • Serve 1-2 patties per person.
