    This recipe is absolutely declicous! I have made it multiple times and get requests for it almost weekly. I use spicy brown mustard rather than Dijon and I've tried mayo instead of greek yogurt for the sauce and both are equally as good. My traditional salmon cakes use can salmon, saltines, onion and an egg...simple and good, but I will never use can salmon again, nor go back to my recipe after having such flavor and texture from these cakes.

    This is a keeper. I've made Salmon patties with my own home made recipes for years, but this one really gave me some incredible ideas. I used everything according to the recipe, but did add a few things for an extra kick. I added Oak cured red wine vinegar, an extra egg, cilantro, fresh garlic, raw finely chopped shallots, and voila.. it was truly incredible. The sauce was wonderful too. Fresh and simple tasting. Truly addictive recipe. Will make this often for friends. It wow'd everyone!

    Really good!!! I made it with Tilapia, I didn't have chives, I used shallots they were delicious. This is the second time I made them. Thanks for the recipe.

    I just LOVE fish cakes , and these salmon cakes are outstanding !!! I made them for a nice lunch today along with my potato salad. I used regular sweet onion in place of the chives since I didn't have them on hand, I also omitted the lemon, dijon and capers, since I 'm the only one in my family who likes capers. Also used tartar sauce on the side for dipping. LOVE this recipe and will be making it again !!

    We thought that these salmon cakes were great. Made them from fresh salmon, cooked on the grill. Did not have enough crackers, so I had to coat them with panko before frying. This worked well. Only had non fat Greek yogurt, so I went with it, and then added a few drops of chili oil...worked well.
    Thanks Giada, we will make these again.

    My mother was the best cook ever but while growing up she would make salmon patties out of the can. I tried every way I could to cover the taste of them with cocktail sauce, tarter sauce, Dijon mustard, ketchup but never liked them. I tried giada's recipe and absolutely loved them. I am also not a big fan of salmon but I followed the recipe except I coated them with matzo meal that made the crust very light. I will be eating them often. Great job!!!!!

    These salmon cake are absolutely delicious! Some of the best I have ever had. I also think if you substituted crab for salmon, it would make an awesome crab cake. Thank you for sharing this recipes.

    The salmon cakes were delicious! I used fresh salmon fillets, which gave it a nice, rich taste, but I'm sure using canned salmon would taste good too. My nephew gave it a 10, which is a very high compliment! I ate the leftovers with a sunny-side-up egg the next morning, which tasted amazing. Thanks Giada for a great recipe!

    This is the best thing I've ever tasted! I use seasoned bread crumbs instead of saltines and it still taste AMAZING.
