1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon parsley
1/4 cup flour

If using canned salmon, drain and pick over to remove hard cartilage and bones.
Finely chop onion.
Using fork, flake the salmon and then combine in a medium bowl with onion, egg, bread crumbs, Worcestershire, hot sauce, black pepper, cheese and parsley.
Using about 1/3 cup salmon mixture for each cake, shape the mixture into rounds about 1/2\" thick.
Sprinkle flour on a plate and dredge the patties, coating well, but dusting off excess flour.
Place patties in the refrigerator and let set for 30 minutes.
Heat the butter in a large skillet until foamy and hot.
Add the patties and brown both sides, cooking about 5 minutes.
Remove the patties from the pan and drain on paper towels.
