Ingredients

For creamy carrot dressing (base recipe):
2 medium carrots, chopped if using a high-powered blender (about 1 1/4 cups), grated if using a regular blender
1/2 cup filtered water
1/4 cup raw cashews
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 Tbsp. freshly squeezed lime juice
1 (3-inch) piece scallion, white and light green parts only, coarsely chopped
1 (1/2-inch) slice of a large garlic clove
1/2 tsp. fine sea salt, plus more to taste
1 tsp. tamari, plus more to taste
For spicy carrot-miso dressing:
1 recipe Creamy Carrot Dressing, omitting the salt and using brown rice vinegar in place of the lime juice
1 Tbsp. unpasteurized chickpea miso or sweet white miso
1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and chopped (finely chopped if using a regular blender)
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper, plus more to taste

Steps:

Base recipe:
Combine the carrots, water, cashews, olive oil, lime juice, scallion, garlic, salt, and tamari in an upright blender and blend until completely smooth; this will take at least 1 minute. Scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula and blend again. Adjust the seasoning to taste and blend again. Use immediately, or store in a glass jar in the fridge for up to 3 days. Shake well before using. The dressing will thicken once chilled; thin it out with a little water if needed.

LOURO'S ROASTED HEIRLOOM CARROT SALAD WITH MISO DRESSING

Louro's Roasted Heirloom Carrot Salad With Miso Dressing image

In this sophisticated but dead simple salad, multicolored heirloom carrots are roasted until tender and lightly glazed, then set on top of a smear of savory, salty miso dressing. The only other element is a sprinkling of fresh scallion, which adds crispness and brightness. Serve it on the side with a roasted chicken, or as an appetizer all by itself.

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

12 carrots (preferably 3 or 4 different colors), washed and trimmed
2 tablespoons olive oil, more for drizzling
3 teaspoons granulated sugar
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup of shiro (white) miso
2 teaspoons rice wine vinegar
2 teaspoons mirin
3 scallions, white and light green parts, thinly sliced

Steps:

Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Cut carrots into 2-inch diagonal pieces. If using different colors, keep carrots separate so the colors don't bleed into each other. Toss carrots with olive oil, 1 teaspoon sugar, salt and pepper.

MISO CARROT SAUCE WITH GINGER (JAPANESE SALAD DRESSING)

Miso Carrot Sauce With Ginger (Japanese Salad Dressing) image

Really nice dressing! One measure of a good home cook is the ability to make your own salad dressing. Or so says Mark Bittman in the food section of the New York Times. This is the orange dressing you sometimes see on your too-cold salad in Japanese restaurants. I made this tonight, and thought it was much better than any other I ever tried at a Japanese restaurant! I made this with half the corn oil, so if you'd like to try the original recipe you can increase amount to 1/4 cup. I did not decrease the sesame oil (but did use regular).
