How to Use
Drain the can and use the salmon as is. For salmon patties, mix one can with an egg, 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, scallions, lemon zest, salt, and pepper, then pan-fry 3 to 4 minutes per side. For salmon salad, combine with Greek yogurt or mayonnaise, celery, dill, capers, and lemon juice. Flake it over green salads, stir into creamy pasta, or fold into chowder in the last few minutes of cooking. Store unopened cans in the pantry; refrigerate leftovers covered and use within 2 days.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Kirkland Signature Wild Alaskan Pink Salmon contain allergens?
Yes. The can contains fish (pink salmon), which is a major allergen. The only other ingredient is salt, and the product is Kosher (OU) certified. For the current ingredient statement and any facility or cross-contact notice, read the printed label on the can before eating, since packaging details can change between production runs.
How should I use and store canned pink salmon?
Drain the can and use the salmon straight away in patties, salmon salad, pasta, chowder, or over greens. Unopened cans keep in a cool, dry pantry until the best-by date on the can. After opening, move any leftovers to a covered container in the refrigerator and use within 2 days.
What is the difference between pink salmon and sockeye or red salmon?
Pink salmon has a lighter color, softer texture, and milder flavor than sockeye, which is deeper red and richer tasting. Pink salmon is also lower in fat and usually less expensive, which makes it the practical choice for patties, salads, and casseroles where the salmon is mixed with other ingredients.
Where is Kirkland Signature Wild Alaskan Pink Salmon caught and packed?
The salmon is wild caught in Alaska and certified under the Alaska Seafood Certified Responsible Fisheries program. It is processed by Trident Seafoods and distributed by Costco Wholesale Corporation. This listing is the boneless, skinless 6 oz (170 g) can, sold as a single, a pack of 3, or a pack of 6.
