Default Fish Cakes

This is a salmon fish cake recepie however I have been using blackfish (tog) instead and have also use stripers.
I dont waste the filets however I use the rib meat that most people discard. As the mate filetes the fish have him save you the ribs. I fish on a 6 pack so after the limit I wind up with the ribs from 36 fish, (72 rib cages).
Rinse them well and steam in a double boiler type steaming pan. If you dont have a steam pan place a strainer over a pot of boiling water to steam. I steam my fish in a mixture of 1/2 water and 1/2 wine (red or white) and a few fresh garlic cloves in the liquid. The liquid is about 1-2 cups of water just enough to fill the pan an inch or so with liquid. After steamed let cool and pick apart the bones. This is very time consuming and pretty tedious but after this hard work you will wind up with 2 1/2-3 1/2 pounds of fresh meat chunks which are great for the cakes.
I use one of those slap chop gadgets "AS SEEN ON TV" to cut up the ingredients which makes it fast.

Follow the below recepie and you are set.

That is a great way to keep from wasting fish meat. I do it pretty similar myself. Sometimes I make fish cakes sometimes I make fish chowder...Charlie

Glad you enjoyed them. It's been cakes and chowder almost every week here
My wife and kids love them. Like all recipes you add or subtract what you like. I add shallots to the cake mix and add leaks in my chowder mix.
Good stuff

Yea my wife liked the capers but I wasn't a big of the salty capers in the cake. I think I will cut back on capers next time and add shallots and scallions. Regardless they were great!

Rinse the capers under running water, they are way to salty
