The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

Looking for a quick and tasty way to get more fish in your diet? These easy salmon cakes will have you hooked with their flavor and simplicity.

1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
1/4 cup finely chopped green onion
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt
cayenne pepper to taste
1 egg, beaten
1 can (12 ounce size) skinless, boneless pink salmon, drained and flaked
1 cup dry bread crumbs, divided
3 tablespoons butter
Combine the bell pepper, green onion, mayonnaise, lemon juice, seasoned salt, cayenne, egg, salmon, and about one-fourth of the bread crumbs together in a bowl. Mix well.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Scoop the salmon mixture into balls about the size of a large egg. Roll the salmon balls in the remaining breadcrumbs to evenly coat on all sides. Place the coated salmon balls on a sheet of waxed paper. Gently flatten each ball to about 1/2-inch thick.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the butter, tilting the pan to evenly coat the bottom with the butter as it melts. When the butter is hot, add the salmon cakes (in batches if needed) and cook on each side for 3-4 minutes.
