nickability No, you don’t understand..... my friend hates Vegan food so, by claiming salmon is actually carrot then she can now say she loves carrot based Vegan food...... as you can tell she’s a bit simple but what the hell.
I can't physically become vegetarian or vegan myself. For some reason, my body does not do well doing that. I tried, and my body had way to low iron and proteins. While I will eat vegan and vegetarian items if they taste good, my body cannot digest plant based items well enough to give me the proteins and iron the way meat can.
I think the taste test would work better if Merle did not take it because they know she is vegan have her watch from the side or something? That way it is more of an honest review? Anyway I like this series :) please keep it coming
@@intervalgaming6196 look it up yourself if you so badly want to know. Plus he's too good looking to date someone like her... He can do so much better.
It is easier to find (and cheaper) banana peel "all over the world", I think. for example here in Argentina we do not have Jack fruit. Sorry for my bad English, I hope you can understand me.
it’s weird how so many people use seaweed (the nori) to give a fishy flavor to things? i’m korean so it’s a staple in my diet and i’ve found that it doesn’t really give off a fishy flavor
I think korean seaweed is not fishy compared to the japanese one. That's why I like the korean one better. Lol. Even in Japan korean seaweed are called Kankoku Nori (Korean Seaweed). Because it's so different with their own nori
I see almost that level sometimes (not only from vegans). My favorite is vegan "bacon" from rice paper... Okay, some spice and oil is involved but still...
Story time! When I was working at a deli some guy called and asked if we had Lox, I thought he said Locks and I said to try Home Depot or Lowe’s... I am not cultured
My co-workers had the same reaction - no one really bought the "smoked salmon" aspect but everyone wanted more - they said it was delicious... so I just called them carrot sandwiches
Actually there is already a company that makes a plant-based alternative to salmon. Is called F-ish and they use carrots as well, I really reccomend you to try👍
@Gary York Let's say you want to drink soda, but you know it's unhealthy, so you cut back on the soda, but you're craving it, so that's why you would buy an alternative, healthy soda something that is somewhat healthy and taste like soda
@Gary York No No. I think this salmon alternative is for people who can't eat salmon or are vegan. for reasons like high chlistrol (i think) or either crulity reasons or enviromantal reasons. I think meat is healthy and inmportant to inculed in a diet (or get your protiens from somewhere else)
@Gary York you're on a carnivore diet? That's VERY unhealthy, most professionals would not let their patient on one. I wouldn't trust any of your advice lol
I wonder if it would be easier to make this if the carrots that were roasted were jumbo carrots. That way the peel could be larger and less likely to fall apart. It would require a different roasting time though....
You should try this recipe! I promise its sooo good. I'm from finland and we have this thing called Porkkala. Porkkana (carrot) + Kala (Fish) = Porkkala. ● 4 Big carrots ● 1kg rough seasalt ● 1 tablespoon oil ● 2 teaspoons liquid smoke ● 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar Wash carrots but do not peel them. Spread layer of salt to the tray so the bottom doesn't show. Then cover the carrots all the way so carrots are completely covered (i mean use the whole kilogram of salt.) Then put them in oven to 175 celcius about 1,5 hours or until soft. Break the hardened salt and brush of any big chunks left. Then peel carrots and chop to thin slices. Mix oil, liquid smoke and vinegar, mix the carrots in and let marinade 1-2 days. (Recipe from finnish vegan food blog chocochili) This is literally the best vegan fishy kind of thing i have eaten and it is one of my favourite things to put on karelian pie or dark rye bread. It also goes very well with sushi!
You made "pulled pork" from banana peels? Lol Have you seen it made from jackfruit, theres a frozen food company that uses jackfruit as meat replacement for different recipes.
@@intervalgaming6196 No but it tastes similar to meat. Not every meat replacement has to be high in protein. I like to eat jackfruit with black beans, so I get good carbs and good protein
these are super popular in finland, even amongst nonvegans! it’s super simple to do actually, I just peel them, boil them in salted water, slice them like you did and then use a marinade that’s really simple (oil, white wine vinegar, salt & liquid smoke) and keep them in the fridge for 24-48 hours and it’s so good!
Its just salmon, lox is just the Swedish/Norwegian word for it and it's actually lax/laks Edit: Its laks in Norwegian thanks panala for the information.

5 ปีที่แล้ว +1
Mathias Boye Rasmuseen they’re literally coated in salt if you want more why not just eat it straight out of the jar??? excessive salt is sooo bad for the body
I would bake the nori for a minute at 420 Fahrenheit before adding it into the marinade to enhance the taste and add in some of the smokiness that you would get with the real thing
You know what? This is the type of content I like to watch. I'm tired of all of those people who say "don't eat animals" and are over agressive over meat-eater people. I will definitely try to be vegan, because now I see that I can try new things, because I might like them. Thank you so so so much!
I have a seafood allergy that includes fish but I love to eat seafood. So I will probably try this recipe so I don’t get hives when I try to eat lox on a bagel.
Still just trying to figure out why she put liquid in a food processor for them to get combined.. that could have easily been done in a mixing bowl or at the very least a blender hahaha
What I like about her videos is she isn't one of those vegans who insists every vegan substitute is perfect and you can't tell the difference. She's honest when something isn't very good. It's her type of attitude that inspires people to try more vegan food as opposed to the fanatical vegans who call people murderers and rapists for having a burger and a milkshake. All their attitude does is alienate people and put them off. Keep it up, Merle!
I actually think thinly sliced ripe avocados dipped in wasabi and soy sauce can pass for vegan salmon sashimi! I've tried it a few times and the fattiness of the avocado actually closely resembles the fattiness in salmon sashimi!
I'm not a vegan, but I've always had bad references from vegan people who were trying to make me feel bad because I'm not, but definitely your videos have made me review my food concepts in a very fun way. Hugs from a Brazilian in Chile. Lol
It's interesting how selfish humans are... Rather than reevaluate your perspective to think about the animals, you reframe the situation to make it about yourself.

Sweetie, you could have made that vegan pulled pork with jackfruit... but you decided to use... banana peel 😐
Its an alternative. And is better because its closer (in texture) and you don't throw the banana peel away.
It is easier to find (and cheaper) banana peel "all over the world", I think. for example here in Argentina we do not have Jack fruit. Sorry for my bad English, I hope you can understand me.

“salt these like crazy”
*insert 3 grains of salt*
We have this in Finland too! It's called "porkkala". The word for carrot is "porkkana" and the word for fish is "kala".
Roasted marinated seedless watermelon in a similar method is great for”tuna” sashimi
Tastes just like soggy watermelon
😲😲
every honest review said that it just taste like savory fishy watermelon
It really doesn't taste good and nowhere near Tuna
I’ve tried it before, and to be honest, who on earth thought it was okay? It was like mushy watermelon with a hint of soy sauce. Awful.
i thought this video was titled “making vegan salmonella with carrots”
And salt them like crazy:literally uses tiny little microscopic neutron amoebas the size of a baby bacteria and a baby amoebas. Amazing.
