Vegan Substitute
Vegan salmon for sushi, bagels, and fillets. Carrot lox, marinated tomato sashimi, and commercial options that replicate the real thing.
Salmon farms pollute coastal waters with waste, antibiotics, and parasites. Wild salmon populations are declining due to habitat destruction and overfishing.
Bagels with cream cheese, sushi
Roast whole carrots at 200C for 1 hour, then slice thin and marinate in liquid smoke, soy sauce, olive oil, and nori overnight.
Sushi, poke bowls, nigiri
Blanch and peel tomatoes, remove seeds, marinate in miso paste, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Slice thin for sashimi.
Roast 3-4 large unpeeled carrots at 200C for about 1 hour until tender. Cool, then shave into thin slices with a peeler. Marinate overnight in a mix of liquid smoke, soy sauce, olive oil, capers, lemon juice, and crumbled nori.
Algae-based DHA/EPA supplements provide the same omega-3 fatty acids found in salmon. Fish get their omega-3 from algae, so you're going directly to the source. Flaxseed, chia seeds, and walnuts provide ALA omega-3.
