CLASSIC CARROT SALAD
Maybe your family has made carrot salad forever, or maybe you've seen it at potlucks, but if you're not familiar with this Southern classic, your inner voice might be screaming, "Raisins don't belong in salad!" But relax: This just might be the only time they do. The soft, sweet raisins complement the crunchy carrots, which are finished with a tangy dressing. Soak the raisins in hot water to give them a different, more plump texture. If you aren't a fan of mayonnaise or yogurt, use 2 tablespoons avocado oil or olive oil, plus 1 tablespoon lemon or lime juice, and add some chopped fresh parsley. Let the crunchy-sweet flavors roll over your tastebuds as you realize you've made a simple, and delicious, dish in less than 15 minutes.

CARROT AND GOLDEN RAISIN (SULTANA) SALAD
I came up with this as a side for a fish curry we ate last night. I have a hand held tool that shreds carrots in long strips. You could just grate the carrot if you don't have the same. I'm in a remote area so used dried mint, feel free to use fresh as I would if I could get it!

Tips:
- Choose the right carrots. For the best flavor, use fresh, young carrots that are sweet and tender. Avoid carrots that are too large or have a woody texture.
- Use a sharp grater. A sharp grater will create thin, even shreds of carrot that will absorb the dressing better.
- Don't overdress the salad. A little bit of dressing goes a long way. Too much dressing will weigh down the salad and make it soggy.
- Let the salad rest before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Serve the salad chilled. This will help to keep the carrots crisp and refreshing.
Conclusion:
Carrot salad is a simple but delicious dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or a light main course. The combination of sweet carrots, tangy dressing, and crunchy nuts and seeds is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful salad, give this carrot salad recipe a try.
