Yield: Makes 4 to 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1  slice white bread
  • 1/4  cup  milk
  • 1 1/2  pounds  salmon fillet
  • 1  teaspoon  salt
  • 2  tablespoons  fresh dill or thyme, finely chopped
  • 1  teaspoon  Dijon mustard
  • 1/4  teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper
  • Lemon-scented Challah Buns
  • Sour Cream-Dill Sauce

Preparation

Soak bread in milk until soft.

Coarsely chop salmon, and place in a food processor. Pulse several times until roughly chopped. Add bread and milk, salt, and next 3 ingredients. Pulse several times until well blended.

Form salmon mixture into 4 to 6 patties, and place on a lightly oiled plate. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to cook.

Grill burgers over medium-hot coals (or on a grill pan over medium-high heat) 3 to 5 minutes or until done. Serve on Lemon-scented Challah Buns with Sour Cream-Dill Sauce.
