Tips for Making Beet and Carrot Salad with Coriander and Sesame Salt:
- Choose fresh, firm beets and carrots for the best flavor and texture. - Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the beets and carrots for even cooking and a more delicate texture. - If you don't have a spiralizer, you can use a vegetable peeler to create long, thin ribbons of beets and carrots. - Be sure to drain the beets and carrots well before adding them to the salad to prevent the salad from becoming watery. - For the coriander and sesame salt, use a mortar and pestle to grind the coriander seeds and sesame seeds together until they are fine. This will help to release their flavor and aroma. - If you don't have a mortar and pestle, you can use a spice grinder or a food processor to grind the seeds. - Adjust the amount of salt in the coriander and sesame salt to taste. - Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later. - Garnish the salad with fresh coriander leaves and a squeeze of lime juice before serving.Conclusion:
