Place tofu on several layers of heavy-duty paper towels. Cover with additional paper towels; let stand 5 minutes.
Place tofu in a large bowl.
Add salmon to bowl; mash with a fork to crumble.
Add chives and next 4 ingredients (through egg white); mix well. Divide mixture into 4 equal portions, shaping each into a 1/2-inch-thick patty.
Place panko in a shallow dish; dredge patties in panko.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add patties to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
Place 1 lettuce leaf on each of the bottom halves of buns; top each serving with 1 tomato slice, 1 patty, and 1 onion slice.
Spread 2 tablespoons Edamame-Cilantro Pesto over each serving; top with top halves of buns.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc
Salmon on the menu? Try pairing with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc. To decide on white or red, you should consider your seasoning and sauces. Chardonnay is a great friend to buttery, creamy dishes, while sauvignon blanc can complement herb or citrus-centric dishes. A light-bodied, low-tannin red such as the pinot noir goes great with broiled or grilled salmon. The Lapis Luna Chardonnay with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.
Lapis Luna Chardonnay
Orange zest, ripe pineapple, toast, and vanilla on the nose. Full-bodied, fresh and lively, with lush white peach and ripe apple flavors leading to a savory buttered finish.
