Canned white asparagus has its uses. I used to make a ham and asparagus crepe using the stuff. With a nice mornay sauce.

One of my favourite meals when I was a kid was creamed salmon on patty shells, without the peas, and it could also be eaten on toast. It was made with canned salmon. I loved it. I still do.

I never heard of patty shells. This picture looks like it could be wallpaper. But I'd get hungry whenever I looked at it.

They are shells made of puff pastry. We buy them frozen in packages of 6. Put them on a baking sheet and pop them in the oven for about 15 minutes. They have little circles cut into the top and those little plugs can be popped out after cooking to make tops and leave a space for the cream sauce. They are very versatile and can be used for savoury or sweet dishes.

I'm a dummie and didn't attach the picture I was looking at. Man that looks good.

I was wondering what picture you were referring to :-)
They are good. That is apparently a Canadian package since it is in French and English. Perhaps some people might know them as vol-au-vent.
While my old favourite is creamed salmon, you can also use creamed tuna, chicken, turkey, seafood, cheese, or vegetables. You should give them a try some time. You will be impressed.

We are able to get wild caught Alaskan salmon in the can. It's pretty good. I wouldn't want to grill it up and eat it, but I don't do that with canned tuna either. We make the most amazing salmon cakes with it.

The terminology is what lost me. I've always seen them called puff pastry shells.
I've used them but don't remember what for. I do occasionally use puff pastry sheets.. This is a favorite use here. I only loosely follow the directions.

Ham And Cheese In Puff Pastry
Ingredients Four 5 x 5-inch puff pastry squares 2 Tablespoons finely chopped onion 1 Tablespoon butter 1 egg, beaten 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese or 3-cheese mix
(Swiss, Monterey Jack and Cheddar) 2/3 cup cooked ham, coarsely chopped 1 Tablespoon snipped fresh parsley 1 teaspoon dried dillweed or 1 tablespoon snipped
fresh dillweed Dash garlic powder Dash fresh ground pepper 1 egg yolk with 2 Tablespoons water mixed for egg wash
Preheat oven to 400 to 425 degrees. If using frozen
pastry puff, let pastry come to room temperature.
In small saucepan, cook onion in butter until tender but
not browned. For filling, in a medium mixing bowl
combine egg, cheese, ham, parsley, dillweed, garlic
powder, and pepper. Stir in onion mixture; set aside.
Place 2 to 3 Tablespoons of the filling just off center
on each square. Moisten edges of pastry with water;
fold in half diagonally. Seal edges by pressing with
finger or tines of a fork. Place pastry on ungreased
baking sheet. Coat with egg wash. Place in preheated
oven and immediately drop temperature to 380 degrees
and cook 20 to 25 minutes until nicely browned.
