Combine first 6 ingredients in a small bowl; cover and chill.
Salmon Cakes:.
Heat 1 teaspoon oil in medium nonstick skillet over medium heat; add onion and celery and saute 4 minutes, or until tender.
Combine onion mixture with 1/2 cup crackers, mustard, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, salmon, egg, mayonnaise, lemon juice, worcestershire sauce and Tabasco in a medium bowl; divide into 4 equal portions, shaping each into a 1/2-inch thick patty.
Coat each patty with 1 tablespoon crackers; cover and chill 20 minutes.
Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat until hot; add patties and cook 5 minutes on each side or until lightly browned.
Serve salmon cakes with flavored mayonnaise.
Notes: I actually followed this recipe pretty closely. I used bread crumbs instead of saltines and used fresh salmon filets.
