Radishes and carrots are two vegetables that are often paired together in salads. Their crisp texture and slightly bitter flavor make them a refreshing addition to any meal. When combined with tuna and capers, these vegetables create a salad that is both flavorful and satisfying. The tuna adds a boost of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, while the capers add a briny, salty flavor that balances out the sweetness of the vegetables. This salad is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables and protein, and it's also easy to make.

CARROT, ORANGE AND RADISH SALAD



Carrot, Orange and Radish Salad image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 carrots
6 radishes (or 4-inch piece daikon radish)
1 handful fresh mint leaves
1 handful fresh cilantro leaves
2 navel oranges
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 teaspoon orange flower water
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Slice carrots and radishes as thinly as possible and add to a large bowl. Add mint and cilantro. Remove the peel and pith from the oranges. Working over a bowl to catch the juice, cut between the membranes to remove the orange segments; add them to the carrots. Squeeze the membrane to extract the rest of the juice and add the cinnamon, sugar, lemon juice, orange flower water, and salt, to taste. Mix to dissolve sugar and salt. Pour over the carrot mixture and gently toss to coat. The salad can be served immediately but allowing it to sit for 1 or 2 hours will help the flavors to blend. Just before serving, taste and adjust seasoning.

CARROT & TUNA SALAD



Carrot & Tuna Salad image

This recipe is by Harumi Kurihara, who is reportedly sort of the Japanese parallel to Martha Stewart or Delia Smith. She says it is one of the most popular dishes she has ever developed. Though it is from a Japanese cook, it's not a traditionally Japanese dish, but more international. I wasn't sure what to make of it - The carrots are fairly sweet, and the dressing quite tangy, so the effect is sweet-tart in the way that coleslaw often is (it doesn't really taste like coleslaw; I'm just trying to explain an aspect of the flavor). I have never been a big fan of that flavor, but I know a lot of people love it, so I thought I'd post this. Her method of quickly steaming the carrots in the microwave is definitely good. Ms. Kurihara pictures this served with Japanese dishes, but I think it would be good served with American picnic barbecue foods like hamburgers and barbecued chicken! The cookbook was translated from Japanese to English in England, so the measurements are British-style. I have tried to give American measurement equivalents where I could; these are approximations. I bought the carrots pre-slivered in the salad section; that made it quite easy.

  • Once the carrots are lightly cooked but still crisp, add the tuna and then the dressing and mix well.
  • Serve warm or cold.
  • She notes that you can increase the amounts of the recipe, but that she has found it best to only microwave this amount of carrots at one time.
