Salmon Trimmings

Ames

Oooh lots of ideas! I might have to get them regularly so that I can try them all out. I think I'll go with the fritata idea, I'm not a good cook and that's nice and easy.

Thanks everyone!

I make a kind of smoked salmon pate when I get some. Just chop the salmon finely then stir into cream cheese and season with pepper and lemon juice. Gorgeous on brown bread.

I bought me and hubby a piece of haddock each, and bought the salmon pieces for the dogs!!
But when I opened the pack and saw how much was there - wow!
Me and hubby had salmon and haddock, and some bits left for the dogs.

Hi princess lou,

They are great for making a creamy sauce for with pasta. Fry some onion in butter, add some single cream or creme fraiche and dill if you have it and heat through. At the last minute add the salmon trimmings and pour over cooked pasta.

There's an earlier thread with more ideas that should help so I'll add your post to it to keep the suggestions together.

I bought some yesterday and it had two heads and tails and the bones and flesh. Now they charge £2 a kilo, still cheaper than salmon except when salmon is on offer at £4 a kilo at Easter!

I buy when it's on offer and also do it with meat. I would use with pasta or make salmon cakes.

Yummy salmon fish cakes, stick a bit of cheese in the middle of the mash and cooked salmon to get the inside cheesey filling that a lot of fish cakes seem to have nowadaysshape into round patties dip in seasoned flour ,egg and breadcrumbs and shallow fry or when cold freeze for later

I wouldn't slow cook salmon - it cooks very quickly, and can go "dry" if overcooked.
Risotto is lovely
