Ingredients
- For the salad:** (Optional)
- 1 Tbsp high-quality non-hydrolyzed gelatin powder
- 1 cup homemade stock (chicken or beef)
- 1 cup homemade tomato juice (from fresh, ripe garden tomatoes, seeds removed)
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- For the dressing:** (Optional)
- 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tsp melted coconut oil (92°F/33°C)
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp pickling salt
Directions
- To prepare tomato juice, blanch the tomatoes: Boil enough water to submerge tomatoes in a large bowl. Cut a small “x” at the bottom of each tomato, submerge in boiling water for a few minutes until the skin curls, then peel. Cut peeled tomatoes in half, spoon out seeds, and blend into juice.
- Prepare salad dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, melted coconut oil, olive oil, and pickling salt. Decant into a salad dressing pourer.
- Sprinkle gelatin over ½ cup cold stock in a bowl and let it bloom until it gels.
- Heat the remaining ½ cup stock until hot, pour over the bloomed gelatin mixture, and mix.
- Add tomato juice to the gelatin mixture and stir.
- Pour into ramekins and chill until firm.
- Serve on a bed of shredded raw carrots: Soak ramekins in hot water, invert onto carrots, and drizzle with dressing.
