About This Recipe 

Prepare the perfect salmon cake with Trifecta Salmon and a few simple but flavorful ingredients.

To make a kind of seafood cake all you need is the seafood, a binder (typically egg), and a filler (usually breadcrumbs). You can also use crushed crackers, cornflakes, or crispy rice cereal as a filler to help hold the cake together.
