"My DH loves salmon!! I have been meaning to make this burger for him, but it has been lost for a while. I am placing it here for safe keeping and as a reminder for me!! These burgers are easier to handle if they are chilled for 1 hour before grilling....time included in cooking time. From BonAppetit July 2001."

Perhaps it was the tartar sauce that I used (Recipe #19229)...but we liked it very well on its own...however, we just couldn't seem get our taste buds around these burgers. They seemed dry and tasteless...maybe we overcooked them. I don't know. I am used to salmon patties with more ingredients, and we did add some salt to this to boost the flavor a bit, but it just wasn't a dinner that we will repeat.

These are just after my fancy - easy and fast to make and so delicious. I followed the recipe as described here and to chill the patties one hour before helps a lot in handling them. For the Tartar Sauce I have used recipe #19229, which is easy to make. For the patties I have set some little salmon dices aside and fold them in after I have grounded the rest. I love these burgers, especially the combination of fresh dill with salmon (it is a very classic combination). The selfmade Tartar Sauce works great here and gave very fresh notes. But the best is, that none of the ingredients was getting too dominating, you can still taste the wonderful flavours of the salmon. Great. Thanks for sharing.

My name is Robin, and welcome to my about me page. I will try to be as brief as possible, but I tend to be long winded. If you get bored at anytime, feel free to move on...I won't be offended. I was born in the great city of New Orleans, but have had the pleasure of travelling and living all over the place. My parents moved to Lafayette, Louisiana when I started high school. After high school, I was a nanny and lived in England (London). I miss it A LOT!! England, not the being a nanny part. I lived and got married in California (Los Angeles), but we moved back to Lafayette to be closer to family. Well, to make a long story short, things didn't work out and we got a D-I-V-O-R-C-E!!! After that, I packed up and moved to Texas (Beaumont). I met the love of my life (Toby) on-line - believe it or not - and he whisked me away to Kentucky (Louisville). Which is where I lay my head and call home now. I absolutely love it here!! I love having seasons!! The trees changing colors in Fall and snow in the Winter, along with a BEAUTIFUL Spring and HOT Summer!! We live in the house Toby grew up in, and are about to start doing some MUCH needed renovations! (I DEMAND A BIGGER KITCHEN!!) I have recently (this past year) started growing my own herbs. I threw in a few tomato plants for good measure :D. Now I have the bug!! I want more more MORE!! So Toby has so lovingly decided to make me an actual garden. This way I can grow all sorts of fun stuff!! I can't wait!! I love fresh home grown veggies and stuff!! And NOTHING beats fresh herbs!!! Toby has a son (Zach, 11) from a previous marriage. I guess that would make me the wicked stepmom.....I hope not!!! We also have in our lovely family 2 dogs (Daisy, a Cockapoo who runs the house and Missy, a Black Lab), a cat (Mystery), and a ferret (Flower). I am a stay at home stepmom (that is my job), so I have all day to cook and look up different recipes. I LOVE it!! I have figured out that I can cook twice as much if I give half of what I cook away....LOL!! This means Toby's business partner and his wife eat just as well as we do!! They have told me on many occasions, that if I can't take Toby anymore they will add on to their house to make room for me. All I have to do is cook!! LOL!! My parents are foodies and I TOTALLY blame them for my passion for food!! I will try anything once. I have found that I really do like some things I "thought" I hated. Although, I do still HATE (green)peas!! Here is my rating key for reviews: ***** = HEAVEN - I would not change a thing!! **** = Was VERY good, but would make a few changes *** = Not a bad recipe, but would make quite a few changes if I made it again ** = Would have to make a lot of changes to enjoy * = Didn't enjoy it at all, and will probably not make again.
