Amish Carrot and Raisin Salad with Cooked Dressin image

quick and easy recipe that they will love.

Provided by Elaine Laskowski

Categories     Other Side Dishes

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

6-8 large carrots
2/3 c raisins
1/2 tsp salt
COOKED DRESSING
1/4 c flour
2 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp dry mustard
1 1/2 c milk
2 egg yolks, slightly beaten
1/3 c vinegar
1 Tbsp butter

Steps:

  • 1. Peel and shred carrots. Toss with raisins and salt. Set aside.
  • 2. In a saucepan mix the flour, sugar, salt and dry mustard. Stir milk in gradually, whisking to mix. Bring to a boil and boil 1 minute. Slowly add 1/4 of the liquid into the eggs while stirring to temper the eggs so they don't cook when added to the hot liquid. Now add the egg yolks in a slow steady stream while stirring liquid. Add the vinegar and butter, boil 1 minute. Let cool and add to the carrot and raisin mixture. Chill before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, crisp carrots for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have any celery seeds, you can substitute caraway seeds or dill seeds.
  • Be sure to drain the raisins well before adding them to the salad, otherwise they will make the salad watery.
  • For a sweeter salad, use golden raisins instead of regular raisins.
  • If you don't have any cooked dressing on hand, you can make your own by whisking together 1/2 cup of mayonnaise, 1/4 cup of sour cream, 1/4 cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon of vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
  • Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later.

Conclusion:

Amish carrot and raisin salad is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be made ahead of time, making it a great option for busy weeknights.
