Carrot and Apple Slaw

Posted July 3, 2006 – 11:18 am in: Salads

Dressing:

  • 2 tablespoons Sesame Oil
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1/4 C Honey
  • 1/2 C Lemon Juice

Ingredients:

  • 3 C packed, shredded carrots
  • 1 C Golden Raisins (or black raisins, they are pretty, too)
  • 1 very tart apple, diced (I use Granny Smith)
  • 3/4 C Toasted almond slivers
  • Cilantro (optional, to taste)

Make it:

  1. Whisk the dressing ingredients together. It should make a thick, dressing, but still easy to pour. The honey is the thickening agent, so it will not be as thick as the honey itself. By the way, this is not the time to use artisan honey, just use the stuff from the bear.
  2. Add the peeled, diced apple to the dressing. The acid in the lemon juice will prevent it from turning brown.
  3. Add all the rest of the ingredients — except the cilantro — and mix well.
  4. Just before serving, garnish with the cilantro. Be sure to ask your guests if they like it or not. Strangely enough, some people do not.
