Ingredients
- 2 to 3 large carrot
- ¼ cup rice vinegar 60 mL
- ¼ cup water plus more as needed, 60 mL
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce use tamari for gluten-free, 30 mL
- 1 Tbsp dill finely chopped, fresh
- 2 Tbsp nori I used a few pieces of snacking seaweed, crumbled
- 1 Tbsp capers finely chopped
- ½ tsp liquid smoke
- bagel to serve, sliced red onion
- cream cheese
- red onion
- capers
Instructions
- Shave: Using either a vegetable peeler or a mandolin slicer (set to the thinnest setting), thinly slice carrots lengthwise into long strips.
- Boiling Water: Heat about 4 extra cups of water to a boil (either in a kettle or on the stove). Set aside.
- Broth: Add rice vinegar, ¼ cup water, soy sauce, dill, nori, capers, and liquid smoke to a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer, then add shaved carrots. If carrots are not fully submerged, add just enough of the boiling water to cover the carrots.
- Boil: Cook carrots in boiling broth for 3 minutes. Turn off the heat and let carrots sit in the broth for an additional 20 minutes.
- Serve: Strain carrots from the broth, then serve on a cream cheese bagel with a sprinkle of capers!
Notes
- Storage: If you have leftovers of this lox, lucky you! These brined carrots will last 10 days in the fridge in a sealed container.
