Number Of Ingredients 9

2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1/4 cup orange juice
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons Champagne vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch-by-2-inch sticks

Steps:

  • Toast the cumin in a heavy skillet over medium heat, shaking the pan, about 30 seconds. Put the seeds on a work surface, cover with plastic wrap and crush the seeds with a rolling pin.
  • Put the orange juice in a bowl and whisk in the cumin seeds, mustard, salt, pepper and vinegar. Whisk in the olive oil. Set aside.
