As i mentioned in another thread i have become a Kelpnoodaholic and i really am open to trying a few recipes. Sorry this one isnt of my own doing but i will soon be inspired enough to do my own, however i just had to share!
This really is a lovely tasting recipe and has encouraged me to get dulse in my diet which previously i had not experienced. Its refreshing with the cucumber and ive always loved honey mustard so i was really excited to try this out. Its easy to make and i feel i am becoming addicted as i make it and dip my crackers in and pour it over salads.
Who said all the good things for you cant taste AMAZING?
For the noodles:
6 oz (1.5 servings by package directions) kelp noodleshttp://www.choosingraw.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/IMG_5687-550x367_thumb.jpg
1 oz dulse strips (you can pre-soak if you like, to reduce sodium)
10 slices cucumber, halved
Date Mustard Dressing
Yields 1 1/2 cups
This is a fun spin on honey mustard dressing, which isn’t a vegan dish. The dates add a wonderful thickness and caramel overtones!
5-6 pitted dates (or alternative sweetener such as Raw Honey or Coconut nectar to sweeten)
1/3 cup hemp, or olive oil
1/3 cup dijon mustard
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup water
Salt and pepper to taste
Blend all ingredients in a high speed blender. Season to taste, and enjoy! Will keep in the fridge for at least a full week.
To assemble the dish, warm some water over the stove until it’s still cool enough to touch, but quite warm. Soak the noodles in the warm water for a few minutes, till they’re warmed up. Strain them. (This totally isn’t necessary—kelp noodles are ready to eat—but I really think that this step makes them more tasty and “comforting.”)
Toss the noodles with the cucumbers and dulse. Pour about 3-4 tbsp dressing over them, and serve!
