Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
16 oz canned salmon -- drained and flaked, liquid reserved
12 soda crackers -- crushed
1 egg -- lightly beaten
2 tsp all-purpose flour
2 tsp dried parsley
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon pepper seasoning -- Lawry's brand recommended
1 tsp dried onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp celery salt
2 TBSP Crisco shortening -- to cook

Crush the soda crackers and combine with the remaining dry ingredients. Beat
the egg.
In a large bowl, combine the canned salmon with the dry ingredient mixture;
mix quite well. Divide and form into 8 equal sized patties and set aside to
rest for 5 minutes before cooking. This will aid to prevent cracking.
Heat the shortening; cook the patties over medium high heat until golden,
about 4 minutes per side. Makes 8 croquettes; serves 4.

These are very much in the style of our mothers and grandmothers - 40's and
50's, sort of.
