Mackerel Dulse Bowl with Toasted Walnut Sauce

Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 4 large organic eggs
  • 1 tsp grapeseed oil or sunflower oil
  • 1 oz whole dulse pieces not dulse flakes
  • 1/2 cup walnut halves
  • 2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp cider vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp prepared horseradish
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 garlic clove chopped
  • 2 tsp fresh rosemary
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 8 oz smoked mackerel broken into 2 inch chunks
  • 2 medium carrots sliced
  • 3 medium cooked beets sliced
  • 2 apples chopped
  • 1/3 cup parsley

Instructions

  • In medium saucepan, place spelt and a couple of pinches of salt and add enough water to cover grains by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer, covered, until kernels are tender, about 40 minutes. Drain any excess water.
  • In another saucepan, add water to a depth of about 3 inches; bring to a boil. Using slotted spoon, gently lower eggs into water; boil for exactly 6 1/2 minutes, adjusting heat to maintain a gentle boil. To bowl of ice water, transfer eggs and chill until slightly warm, about 2 minutes. Softly tap eggs against countertop to break shell in several spots and gently peel, starting from wider end containing the air pocket. Cut eggs in half lengthwise.
  • In skillet over medium, heat grapeseed or sunflower oil. Add dulse and heat, stirring often, until crispy, about 1 minute. Remove from skillet to cool and then chop into 1 inch pieces.
  • Heat oven to 350 F. Spread walnut halves on baking sheet and heat until they smell toasty and are a couple of shades darker, about 10 minutes, stirring nuts once. In blender container, place walnuts, olive oil, cider vinegar, 1 Tbsp water, horseradish, mustard, garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper; blend until smooth. If needed, add more water, 1 Tbsp at a time, to help with blending and reach a thinner consistency.
  • Divide spelt, mackerel, carrot, beets, apple, dulse, and eggs among 4 serving bowls. Drizzle on walnut sauce and top with parsley.
