Mixture for canning fresh salmon or steelhead:

10 TBSP cider vinegar
17 TBSP of ketchup (for color)

 Fish & Shrimp Casserole

1 1/2 lbs. thawed Walleye or Perch fillets
2 cups frozen shrimp, thawed
1 medium onion, diced
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 1/4 cup uncooked minute rice
1/2 bag frozen peas

Sauce

1 can cream of celery soup
1 beaten egg
2/3 cup milk
2 TBSP sour cream

Preheat oven to 350. Sauté onion and celery until tender. Add to sauce mixture. Spray a 9 x 11 inch casserole dish with Pam. (Best to use a clear dish so you can see the fish flake while baking.) Line dish in this order - fish, rice, shrimp and frozen peas. Pour sauce over top. Sprinkle with crumbs and drizzle with margarine. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until done.

Captain Hank likes to add more veggies and double the sauce for a creamier dish. Turkey can also be substituted for the fish and shrimp.
