    Salmon cakes tonight...

    Used to buy either Bumble Bee or Rubenstein canned salmon. Decided to try Costco's house brand, Kirkland. Happy I did. Small cans, seven ounces, and the salmon is quite like faintly pink tuna -- it is a solid, boneless chunk (like white tuna in water) and has no bones or scales or slimy skin and fat.

    Two cans salmon, drain and mash with a fork into small chunks...

    1/3 cup seasoned bread crumbs (or cracker crumbs)...

    1/4 cup minced sweet onion...

    1/4 cup minced sweet red bell pepper...

    Two tablespoons Dukes Mayo...

    Two medium or one extra large egg...

    Tablespoon minced parsley (fresh is best)...

    Tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning...

    Two hefty squirts Lea & Perrins W'shire...

    Mix well with a fork, breaking the salmon down a bit, but not into shreds and strings. Be gentle. Mix thoroughly.

    Add oil to a skillet -- I use a Circulon electric job -- and bring the oil to 350 - 375° F. Form the mush into cakes about four inches round and half- or three-quarters inch thick. Thicker takes longer to fry. Fry to golden or a bit darker -- about six to eight minutes or so per side -- pans vary, so watch 'em and turn 'em when they are brown on the underside. Capisce?

    They are good hot. Even better cold the next day. ;)

    Those are a regular on the menu at our house.

    I like to use a splash of malt vinegar on mine, the wife likes a bit of lemon.

    Serve with rice and a side of fresh greens and you have a fine meal.

    You have access to Dukes Mayo!!?? You lucky dog.
    This is the best rice on the planet, grown in California:

    has a tasty, sweet, fresh nut like flavor.
    It's medium grain, and I like it al dente. Hard to stop eating once you start. Best with gravy, but I usually just use butter, tamari, some Tabasco, and fresh ground black pepper.
    The salmon cakes sound great. Think I told you the best crab cakes I ever had were at that bar (lousy CCs now) across from the RR near the string of cabooses in Lansdowne, MD.

    P.S. Looks like the "cabooses" are gone now. Can't find them on Google maps.

    Dukes is a gourmet influence on the Island. Tho I'm still a virgin.

    I'm a fan of wasabi mayo, myself. Yumm!

    I used to have to buy my Dukes in Wilderness, VA, at a Bloom (née Food Lion). Wasn't too bad while I owned a house there. Now, fortunately, there is a Food Lion not too far from me that stocks Dukes on a regular basis. I think Food Lion, like Dukes, is a NC outfit.

    I know just the place, Bill. I occasionally buy supplies at a gun shop just up Hammonds Ferry Road from that bar. They recently did a major repaving and street-widening through there, and I have not been down there in a while. Next time I am in need of powder, I will check to see if the cabeece have been evacuated.

    I also keep meaning to spy out whether or not that rusting GG1 is still parked near Carroll Park on a siding just up the track from the bridge over Gwynns Falls that you admired. When I was a kid in the fifties that siding (about three tracks wide then) held a long lines of clapped out B&O steam locos that were awaiting the torch. Several of them were "Big Sixes."

    A clue for y'all: Duke's will ship.

    http://www.dukesmayo.com/shop_online.asp?id=2

    We buy the 4-quart packs and they seem to last 8-10 months. A steal at $20, shipped.

    Never even heard of Dukes before. Talk to me.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
