A salmon burger is a type of sandwich made from a salmon patty served on a bun or bread. The term also refers to the patty itself when served without a bun. The patty, made of salmon mixed with spices and binding ingredients, can be fried or baked. Lettuce leaves and tomato wedges are sometimes served with or on top of the burger. The sandwich, which tastes similar to a fish or crab sandwich, is served hot and can be eaten for lunch or dinner.

Salmon patty is made from whole salmon or canned salmon. Whole salmon must be cooked before it is flaked and removed from the bones. Canned salmon is already cooked, but the skin and bones should be separated from the salmon and discarded. The patty ingredients are mixed together and formed into a patty, which is then cooked in a small amount of hot oil or baked in an oven. Fried salmon patties have a slightly crunchier texture than baked salmon patties.

Roe is the usual binding ingredient, which allows the flaked salmon to hold the shape of the patty while cooking. Cornmeal, flour or crushed crackers are added to the flaked salmon along with the spices. Depending on the salmon burger recipe, chopped onion, sliced ​​green onions or chopped peppers are also added. The garlic, parsley and curry flavors complement the taste of the salmon and are often blended into the patty ingredients.

There are several options for the type of bread used to make salmon burgers. Salmon patty can be served on an onion roll, Kaiser roll, or even a traditional hamburger bun. Some recipes use garlic bread or sourdough toast instead of sandwiches. A salmon burger can be served without toppings, or with traditional burger extras like lettuce, tomato, and dressing. Gourmet salmon burgers can include toppings like coleslaw, sour cream, or avocado slices.

Salmon burgers are sometimes served with a flavorful sauce accent that is drizzled over the patty or served as a side accompaniment. Tartar sauce and cocktail sauce are traditional sauces for most seafood and work well with the taste of a salmon burger. There are many different recipes for specialized salmon burger sauces. The sauces range from sweet to spicy and mild to spicy. Ingredients such as lemon juice, horseradish sauce or vinegar are often used in combination with salmon.
