Salmon Burgers With Pickled Cucumbers

Healthy Fact of the Day

Salmon is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are beneficial for heart and brain health. It's also rich in high-quality protein and vitamin D. By making burgers from scratch, you can control the ingredients and avoid additives often found in pre-made patties. The pickled cucumbers add a probiotic element, which may support digestive health.

Ingredients

 

For the pickled cucumbers:

  • 1 English cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt

 

For the salmon burgers:

  • 1 lb skinless salmon fillet, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 burger buns
  • Lettuce leaves for serving

Instructions

  1. Mix vinegar, sugar, and salt for pickled cucumbers. Add cucumber slices and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. In a bowl, combine salmon, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, mustard, egg, green onions, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

  3. Form the mixture into 4 patties. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up.

  4. Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.

  5. Cook patties for 3-4 minutes per side.

  6. Toast the burger buns.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Mexican Mimosa

Fresh-squeezed orange juice provides vitamin C, folate, and potassium while delivering natural sweetness without refined sugar. Using a dry sparkling wine keeps the cocktail lighter than sweeter alternatives, and the tequila’s agave base means fewer congeners than darker spirits. As always, enjoy responsibly and alternate with water to stay refreshed throughout your Taco Tuesday celebration.

The Eggplant Manifesto: In Defense of Summer’s Most Misunderstood Vegetable

Eggplant skin contains nasunin — an anthocyanin antioxidant found in the deep purple pigment of the skin that has demonstrated specific neuroprotective properties in research, appearing to protect cell membranes from free radical damage. Eggplant also contains significant amounts of chlorogenic acid, one of the most potent antioxidant compounds found in plant foods, which has been associated with reduced inflammation and improved blood pressure regulation in clinical studies. The specific preparation of flame-roasting eggplant whole — which is common in Mediterranean and South Asian cooking — preserves these compounds in the flesh while the skin is removed, making it one of the more nutritionally complete eggplant preparations available.
