Chef Hang Outs w/Chef Scotty A vibrant, high-frequency lunch bowl featuring cold-smoked salmon, probiotic-rich ferments, and ancient grains to sustain your energy through the afternoon.
Rinse the quinoa under cold water to clear any bitter frequencies. Combine with water and salt in a small pot, bring to a boil, then simmer covered for 15 minutes. Fluff with a fork and let it breathe.
Let the quinoa sit for 5 minutes after cooking to ensure the texture is light and airy.
In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, lemon juice, turmeric, and honey. Slowly add a teaspoon of warm water at a time until the dressing reaches a silky, pourable consistency.
The golden hue of the turmeric is a visual reminder of the anti-inflammatory energy you are inviting in.
Lightly sear the salmon ribbons in a cast iron skillet with avocado oil for just 60 seconds per side. We want to maintain a tender, almost buttery interior while creating a subtle crust. If using a cold smoker, infuse for 10 minutes prior to searing.
Respect the flame; keep the heat medium-high to achieve a sear without overcooking.
Layer your bowl starting with the warm quinoa. Place the massaged kale on one side, followed by the kimchi, sliced avocado, and the seared salmon. Pour the golden tahini dressing over the top in a spiral motion.
The spiral pour helps distribute the energy of the dressing evenly across the bowl.
Finish with a sprinkle of hemp seeds. Take a moment of silence to appreciate the colors and the life force of the ingredients before your first bite.
Hemp seeds add a subtle nuttiness and a final boost of plant-based protein.
This bowl is designed to ground your energy while providing the clean fuel needed for a productive afternoon. The combination of warm, smoked elements and cool, fermented textures creates a high-vibrational balance. If you don't have a smoker, a tiny drop of high-quality liquid smoke in the dressing can mimic the frequency, but nothing beats the real alchemy of a cast iron sear. Storage: Keep the dressing separate and it stays fresh for up to 3 days. Inspired by the synergy of earth and fire.
