Beets Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 So this morning I made these lovely salmon cakes (no flours--yay) with ginger mayo. At the end, they were really good. But in the time I spent picking tiny bones out of my salmon I could have poached a side of fish. I bought some groovy-sounding wild-caught sustainable brand of salmon. Do they all have bones? Any brand recs? Or do you just eat the bones? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AToE Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I just look for the spine and specifically spend a moment mashing that up really well, the rib bones I've honestly never even noticed in there I think they break down while sitting in the can so that they just fall apart.

Joey Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I just eat em. I consider em a nutritional bonus except when one is still sharp enough to poke me in the gums, then I consider it a built in toothpick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators LadyM Posted April 28, 2013 Moderators Share Posted April 28, 2013 Yep, made that mistake once. I now make sure the can says BONELESS and SKINLESS. Trader Joe's has a nice one with no added salt. I stock up there. Love salmon cakes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJB Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I bought my first canned salmon a few months ago and was disgusted to see bones and skin in there! Eck! Now I buy the smaller cans that specifically say boneless/skinless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beets Posted April 28, 2013 Author Share Posted April 28, 2013 Ok. So the bones are a matter of preference. Thanks guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirsteen Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Yep, I spend so long making bone broth and trying to squeeze every last bit of goodness out of them that I consider the bones in salmon a freebie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraftyCarnivore Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Beets, Costco sells the Bear and Wolf brand. It's very similar in texture to tuna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
