  • A great option for a healthy and light dinner.

    Thanks a lot for this fantastic recipe; I eat salmon and spinachs all the time and never thought about mix both into a single dish. I have tried the potatoe, cheese and spinachs patties but with salmon sounds simply delicious.

  • My family loves it!

    we substitute 1 teaspoon ground ginger and use a little panko bread crumbs because the egg white doesn\'t provide enough bonding to form a burger. we also use extra scallions because my family loves them. we learned you really have to dice the salmon in order to make a decent shaped burger.

  • LOVED IT!!

    At first my girlfriend and I we hesitant about the whole thing especially after reading the reviews. This was so fresh and yummy. We did not have scallions so we used the scallops, and regular ginger in a jar. Once you add the soy sauce and egg white the patties will form. We also added lime when we were pan frying the burgers. Very healthy dinner!!!!

  • Good but not the Best

    Gabe - July 14, 2008 01:30:28 PM PST
    I admit, when I made this I was measuring this against the taste of just a plain salmon burger I make and I have to say it was not much better, but not worse either. The prep time is really easy, especially if you are lazy like me and just get chopped veggies at the store, however I did not add the ginger (dislike the strong taste and believed it would overshadow everthing else). That being said, this was a good and healthy dish that I WOULD recommend to my friends if they asked for a recipe.

  • So-so.

    The flavor of this dish is great. I have no complaints pertaining to the palate. My gripe is the fact that the "patties" don\'t exactly form up. Perhaps this is to do with the fact that I had to use (thawed) frozen salmon. If you are land-locked, like me, and fresh salmon isn\'t an option, plan on this coming out more like cooked tuna salad, rather than patties. Other than that, it tasted great and I will definitely make it again.
