1 Blend butter and the 1/2 cup flour together in a bowl. Bring cream to a boil in a small saucepan. Blend in butter and flour mixture. Remove from heat. Add pepper, salt, bread crumbs and salmon. Mix thoroughly and then spoon into a dish to cool. Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add the 2 tablespoons butter and saute onion until transparent. Add contents of frying pan to the cooled salmon mixture. If the mixture appears too dry, add additional cream. If it appears too soft, add additional bread crumbs.
