Tips and Tricks
I always make sure to provide you with some pointers to get the perfect croquettes every time. In fact the best out of every recipe. Keeping the custom intact, here are a few tips to prepare a perfect Paula Deen Salmon Croquette Recipe;
- This recipe calls for canned salmon, but I recommend you get a fresh fillet of salmon. Poach the salmon fillets until cooked and then flake them. This ensures a fresh and rich taste every time.
- Since canned salmon is always seasoned and you can’t risk adding more spices, you can always work with fresh salmon. To elevate the recipe, you can add a mix of herbs and spices to make it more delicious and finger-licking good.
- Make sure to cook the salmon croquettes on medium heat so that they don’t get overcooked.
- Before you fry the corquettes, make sure to refrigerate them or freeze them for 5-10 minutes to help them hold their shape.
How to Store Salmon Croquette?
You can store them in the freezer in a box. Make sure to line them separately and not on top of each other. If you have to place them on top of each other, put parchment paper or a plastic sheet between the layers to prevent them from sticking. They’ll stay good in the freezer for a month. Take them out a few minutes before you’re ready to cook them.
