Best Pâte Au Saumon Potato Salmon Pie Recipes

POTATO-SALMON BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Stir together the panko, dill, lemon zest and 1 tablespoon of the melted butter in a medium bowl; set aside.
• Butter the bottom of a 2-quart casserole dish. Layer half the potatoes, overlapping, to cover the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle with half of the feta and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Repeat, topping with the remaining potatoes, feta and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Combine the broth and 1 tablespoon of the melted butter in a small bowl and pour over the potatoes. Cover with foil and bake until the potatoes are just softened, 40 to 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut the salmon into 2- to 3-inch pieces. Toss the salmon with the lemon juice and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.
• Remove the potatoes from the oven and uncover. Increase the oven to 425 degrees F. Place the salmon on the potatoes and sprinkle with the panko mixture. Bake, uncovered, until the salmon is cooked through and the panko is golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Garnish with dill sprigs.

SALMON AND POTATO PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain, cool and chop.
• In a medium saucepan, cook onions, garlic and butter over medium heat until vegetables become transparent in color.
• Add onion/garlic mixture, salmon and thyme to cooked potatoes. Mash all together with milk, adding just enough to bring about a mashed potato consistency. Spread evenly into pie shell.
• Place second pie shell over top of salmon mixture. Cut slits into the upper shell, then pinch edges of both pie shells together. Bake on lower rack of oven for 45 minutes.

SALMON PIE/PATE AU SAUMON

Steps:

• Crust: mix 4 cups flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a medium to large mixing bowl.
• Cut in the 1/2 cup of shortening with pastry cutter, two knives or a fork- until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
• Add water to the mixture a little at a time, you can use a fork or you hands to mix the flour and water- until all is mixed and is slightly sticky.
• Roll the dough out on a floured surface and knead until smooth.
• Cut the dough in half and chill the 2 balls of dough until needed.
• Filling:.
• While boiling (40 mins) or steaming (30-40 mins) the potatoes, drain and de-bone the salmon.
• I personally don't like any bones, no matter how soft they are in my pie!
• Once potatoes are done and you can insert a fork into them without resistance, drain water (if boiled) and with a hand mixer start to cream the potatoes.
• Add the butter to the potatoes--as much or as little as you want--and cream together until the butter is melted and evenly distributed.
• Add the milk a 1/2 cup at a time until the potatoes are smooth and creamy, but not too thin nor too thick.
• Add the salmon chives, basil, salt and pepper and mix with the mixer or by hand.
• Add enough salt that you can taste it through the potatoes sufficiently.
• Roll out the first ball of dough large enough for the bottom and sides of a 13x9x2-inch pan.
• Line the pan with dough and add mashed potato mixture evenly into the pan.
• Roll out second ball of dough and place it on top of the filling; cut off excess dough and seal the edges of the pie.
• Make incisions in the dough like this:/// or like this:+.
• Bake for 40 minutes at 400°F or until browned on top and on bottom on the middle rack in the oven.
• Serve right away--we like it with butter melted on top and salt and pepper.

PâTE AU SAUMON (POTATO SALMON PIE)

Steps:

• Drain salmon broth from can. Bone and clean salmon; break into small pieces.
• Saute onions in butter until transparent; set aside.
• In medium bowl, mix mashed potatoes, salmon, cooked onions and seasoning. Cool to room temperature.
• While mixture is cooling, prepare pie dough.
• Transfer potato salmon mixture to pie shell. Brush edge of dough with egg wash and cover with top crust.
• Seal edges and brush pie with egg wash. Don't brush edges; it will brown too much during the baking. Cut slits and cook at 400F (220C) for about 25 minutes until crust is golden brown.
• Serve with green salad and pickles.

SALMON PATE (PATE DE SAUMON)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Put the cubed salmon into the container of a food processor or electric blender. Blend and add the egg. Continue blending while gradually adding the cream, salt, pepper and cayenne. Spoon and scrape the mixture into a mixing bowl. Add the chives, if used, and blend.
• Cut the shrimp into one-half-inch cubes. If bay scallops are used, leave them whole. If sea scallops are used, cut them into halfinch cubes.
• Put the scallops, shrimp and shallots in a dry skillet and cook, stirring, briefly until the seafood gives up its liquid. Add the mixture to the salmon mixture and blend.
• Butter the inside of a loaf pan that measures nine by five by two and three-quarter inches.
• Split each fillet of sole in half lengthwise.
• Make a layer of salmon mixture on the bottom of the loaf pan, using one-fifth of the mixture. Top, lengthwise, with two sole fillet halves, placed parallel over the salmon layer. Continue making layers of salmon and sole fillet halves, ending with the salmon mixture. Smooth it over.
• Cover the loaf pan closely with aluminum foil. Place the loaf pan in a basin of water and bring it to the boil on top of the stove.
• Place the pans in the oven and bake one hour and 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. Chill thoroughly before unmolding and slicing. Serve, if desired, with sauce fines herbes.
