1. Pulse almonds food processor until coarsely chopped; turn into a mixing bowl. Cut salmon into chunks; add to food processor along with salt. Pulse until just chopped, not a puree. Add to almonds; drop in egg.

2. Zest lemon half and squeeze juice; add to chopped salmon. Add 1 cup bread crumbs and green onion; stir until mixed and clumpy.

3. Line a tray with waxed or parchment paper. Shape salmon mixture into eight 3/4-inch-thick patties about 3 inches in diameter. Turn remaining 1/2 cup bread crumbs into a plate; dip patties, pressing in a few crumbs onto both surfaces. (If making ahead, immediately cover and refrigerate for up to half a day.)

4. Slowly whisk buttermilk into mayonnaise; then stir in garlic, lemon juice, horseradish, mustard, salt and pepper until well mixed. Stir in parsley. (Covered and refrigerated, dressing keeps well for a day or 2; stir before using.)

5. Cakes can be sauteed or broiled. To saute, heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add cakes; cook for 5 minutes per side or until golden and crispy. Or to broil, arrange oven rack 4 to 5 inches from broiler ; preheat. Spread oil on baking sheet just large enough to fit cakes; add salmon cakes, placing slightly apart. Flip cakes to coat both sides with oil. Broil 6 to 8 minutes per side or until golden. Serve warm or at room temperature.

6. Peel, seed and dice avocado. Remove any thick stems from arugula ; separate leaves of endive. Measure arugula and endive, adding enough lettuce for 8 to 9 cups . Toss with just enough dressing to lightly coat. Arrange on chilled serving plates; scatter with radishes and avocado. Top with salmon cakes; drizzle with more dressing. Pass remaining dressing .
