SALMON SALMON CROQUETTES 

INGREDIENTS

2 c. salmon, drained, skinned, de-boned, and mashed finely

2 c. mashed potatoes (mashed without liquid)

2 eggs

2 T. butter, melted

½ to 1 tsp. salt

1 T. Worcestershire sauce

½ to 1 c. grated cheese (optional)

2 egg yolks, beaten well bread or cracker crumbs

DIRECTIONS

Combine the salmon and potatoes. Add eggs. Add melted

butter, salt, and Worcestershire sauce. Add cheese, if

using. Mix well. Form into desired shape.

Roll in beaten egg yolk and then cracker

crumbs. Heat 1/4 inch of oil in fry pan.

Brown croquettes thoroughly on one side;

turn over and brown on the other side.

Note: This recipe uses more than the

usual Worcestershire sauce. Our recipe

calls for one-half the original receipt.

Most pre-20th century recipes called for

more seasoning than normal in the 21st

century. Vary the seasoning to your taste
