# Pacific Pie
*Serves 6*
## Ingredients
### Filling
- 1 lb can salmon, drained (reserve liquid)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- Dash of pepper
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/2 cup sweet pickle, finely diced
- 1 1/2 cups fresh bread crumbs
- 1/2 of a 6 oz can mushroom sauce (approximately 3 oz)
- 1/3 cup liquid (reserved salmon liquid topped up with water)
- 2 hard cooked eggs, finely chopped
### Serving Sauce
- 2 cans (6 oz each) mushroom sauce, heated
## Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease an 8 inch round pie pan.
2. Drain salmon, reserving liquid. Discard skin and bones. Flake fish into a large bowl.
3. Add salt, pepper, beaten egg, sweet pickle, bread crumbs, mushroom sauce, and 1/3 cup liquid (salmon liquid topped up with water). Mix until well blended.
4. Fold in chopped hard cooked eggs.
5. Pack mixture firmly into prepared pie pan.

## Editor's Notes
- **Mushroom sauce** appears twice in different roles — 1/2 of a 6 oz can is incorporated into the filling as a binder and flavor base; 2 full 6 oz cans are heated separately as a serving sauce. The same bottled mushroom sauce referenced in the Cheese Spread for Canapés and Bran Meat Cakes recipes elsewhere in this collection. Modern substitute: Worcestershire sauce in the filling; a simple cream of mushroom sauce for serving.
