Ingredients

  • 3 carrots ½ pound or 225 g
  • 2 nori sheets chopped
  • 1 cup hot water
  • 2 tablespoon tamari or soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon maple or agave syrup
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • teaspoon ground black pepper
  • Sea salt to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF or 180ºC.
  • Wash the carrots, add some salt to taste, place them onto a lined baking tray and bake for 40 minutes. You don't have to peel them.
  • In the meantime, you can make the marinade. Just add the nori, water, tamari, syrup, vinegar, paprika, garlic powder and pepper and blend until smooth.
  • When the carrots are ready, remove from the oven, let them cool a little bit and slice them into strips with a knife, peeler or a mandoline.
  • Transfer the carrot strips into a sealed container and massage with some salt to taste.
  • Cover with the marinade and leave for at least 24 hours in the fridge.
  • We spread some vegan cream cheese onto crakers and topped them with the vegan smoked salmon, dried dill and chopped red onion.
  • Keep the vegan salmon in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Notes

  • Nori can be replaced for any other seaweed or just omit it if you want, although the vegan salmon won't have a fishy flavor.
  • Use any sweetener or vinegar (or even lemon juice) you have on hand.
  • To make the salmon tastes even better, top with some extra virgin olive oil before serving.
