Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: For this salad, it's best to use a crisp, tart apple variety like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp. These apples will hold their shape well in the salad and provide a nice contrast to the sweetness of the carrots and walnuts.
  • Shred the carrots finely: This will help them to absorb the dressing better and make them easier to eat.
  • Toast the walnuts: This will enhance their flavor and make them more crunchy.
  • Use a light, flavorful dressing: A simple vinaigrette made with olive oil, vinegar, and honey is a good option. You can also add a bit of Dijon mustard or fresh herbs for extra flavor.
  • Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best enjoyed fresh. The apples and carrots will start to soften if they sit for too long.
