Salmon Burgers with Cilantro Mayo

It took me a very long time to get myself to even attempt to eat salmon. I have never really been a fan, until this burger came along. Zach swore that I would like it if it was prepared in a way I would enjoy. This burger totally proved that theory. I think my hate for salmon started a long time ago when the first time I tried it, it was the super fishy, farm-raised, pink-injected stuff. It scarred me for life. I have always loved basically every other kind of fish (even the crazy stuff that most people wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole). Now that I have accepted salmon into my life, I feel like I’m finally with the “in-crowd.” It’s such a good feeling. I will, however, only be sticking with salmon burgers until I get used to it. Then maybe I will upgrade to a straight filet =). Baby steps. Baby steps. So enough talk about my transition into the world of salmon. Let’s talk about the recipe itself. This burger is scrumptious. I packed it full of delicious flavors (this may or may not have been to try to mask the taste of the salmon itself…it didn’t work…but I found that I was ok with that). Ginger, cilantro, soy sauce and garlic are just a few of the gazillion ingredients in this recipe. These burgers are great on a roll or a slice of lettuce. Either way, it’s a big win in the world of burgers.

Recipe Fun Facts:

The degree in which you choose to cook your salmon burger is totally up to you. We cooked ours to medium because Zach told me to. We also had a beautiful premium salmon filet. As a result, I didn’t feel as nervous cooking it to a lower temperature.

Hey, I told you that I’m a newbie at this stuff. Feel free to cook it longer if you wish. Just don’t burn it. That would be disastrous.

These burgers would also be great as sliders, which is how I’m going to prepare them next. I really think they could be the perfect game day finger food. The Superbowl is right around the corner. We seriously need to start thinking about these things! In my personal opinion, the Superbowl is one of the greatest food days of the year. Gotta do it right, and salmon sliders would totally be “doing it right.”

Beer Love:

Beer: Ninkasi Brewing’s Tricerahops Double IPA
Brewed By: Ninkasi Brewing Company
Style: Double IPA
ABV: 8.0%
IBU: 100
Description: I think hoppy brews go great with fish, especially salmon. Tricerahops is perfect for the job. It is florally in both aroma and taste. It’s the perfect pairing. With this burger’s bold and spicy flavors, this full-bodied, Double IPA compliments each and every bite

  1. Made the salmon burgers and the cilantro mayo last night. We opted to use our George Foreman grill instead of cooking the patties in oil, and the results came out great. The best salmon burgers I’ve had!
