CARROT GINGER DRESSING



Carrot Ginger Dressing image

What makes the salad dressing often served in sushi restaurants so delicious? The orange gives away the carrots, but everything else is blended into a smooth, tangy and well-balanced vinaigrette. Apple is used as an unexpected natural sweetener and miso adds a salty complexity. Be sure to find white miso; it is subtly sweet and mellow compared to other varieties and won't affect the color of your dressing.

Carrot Ribbon Salad With Ginger, Parsley, and Dates image

This salad evolved from my father's favorite road-trip snack-carrot sticks with roasted almonds, lemon juice, and salt. I've punched it up with fresh ginger, lots of parsley, and dates.

⅓ cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
½ cup roasted salted almonds, coarsely chopped

Nutrition Facts : Calories 125 g, Fat 10 g, Fiber 2 g, Protein 2 g

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: Look for young, tender carrots with a deep orange color. Avoid carrots that are thick or have blemishes.
  • Use a vegetable peeler: A vegetable peeler is the easiest way to peel carrots. If you don't have a vegetable peeler, you can use a sharp knife.
  • Grate the carrots: You can grate the carrots by hand or use a food processor. If you're using a food processor, be careful not to over-process the carrots. You want them to be grated, not pureed.
  • Dress the salad immediately: Don't let the salad sit for too long before dressing it. The dressing will help to keep the carrots from drying out.
  • Serve the salad chilled: Gingery carrot salad is best served chilled. You can chill the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving, or you can make it ahead of time and chill it overnight.

Conclusion:

Gingery carrot salad is a simple but delicious salad that is perfect for any occasion. It's light and refreshing, and it's packed with flavor. The ginger and honey dressing adds a sweet and tangy flavor to the carrots, and the nuts add a crunchy texture. This salad is also very healthy, as it is packed with vitamins and minerals.
