• 1 teaspoon Himalayan salt
• 2 tablespoons avocado oil 
• 1 ⅓ cups warm water
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons mixed raw pumpkin seeds, whole flaxseeds, sunflower seeds

Mackerel Spread

• ½ tablespoon coriander seeds, toasted and lightly crushed 
• ½ teaspoon cumin seeds, toasted and lightly crushed 
• 1 large pre-cooked beet, finely diced
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil 
• 1 tablespoon tarragon leaves 
• 2 tins wild-caught mackerel in olive oil, drained
• ½ cup small diced celery
• 10 mint leaves, thinly sliced

Method

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F and lightly oil an 8-inch loaf pan, set aside.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix all of the dry ingredients, then add all of the liquids and mix until a dough forms. Use your hands to briefly knead dough, until all liquids have absorbed. Shape into a loaf and lift it into the baking pan.

Step 3

Smooth surface with damp hands, and sprinkle seeds on top. Bake for 1 hour or until ready, using a skewer to test if the inside is fully baked.  Once ready, turn the loaf pan upside down, remove bread, and place rightside up onto a wire rack to cool before slicing.

Step 4

In a small bowl, combine the coriander and cumin seeds with the beet, apple cider, olive oil, and tarragon. Mix well and set aside.

Step 5

In another bowl, mix the rest of the spread ingredients until incorporated.

Step 6

To serve, spread mackerel over a piece of bread then top with beets and enjoy!
