This is a twist on carrot salad. I needed something a bit different and began experimenting with other ingredients. When left to marinate the flavors marry perfectly!

Ingredients

20 mins
  1. 1 packagescarrots - 16 oz. size
  2. 1lemon - jumbo
  3. 1 tsphoney
  4. 1olive oil, extra virgin
  5. 1 1/2 tbspginger - fresh grated
  6. 1raisins

Cooking Instructions

20 mins
  1. 1

    Wash, peel, grate carrots and put into a temporary bowl until the wet ingredients are ready. Add as many raisins as you like.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, or preferably a container with tight fitting lid, reem a jumbo lemon of all its juice & remove the pits. I like pulp but strain it out if you like. However, squish the pulp to extract more juice. Add honey and stir until honey is completely dissolved.

  3. 3

    I left off the olive oil amount because you need about a 2:1 ratio to the amount of juice. Blend oil as you incorporate it into the lemon. Taste as you go along until you get a balanced flavor. Grate ginger into mixture and stir to blend.

  4. 4

    Add carrots into lemon mixture and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate for a few hours. Every once in awhile stir, or shake, the carrot salad. Take out at least a half-hour prior to serving and stir.

Enjoyed this salad. Paired it with a few other dishes with some oriental flair.

I live in the beautiful Hudson Valley Region of NY. Most recipes I make have been handed down from my familia! I love to cook them and also love to experiment using their techniques.
