Time 4h30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 lb carrots, peeled
1 c granulated sugar
1 c vegetable oil
1/2 c apple cider vinegar1
1 large purple onion
1 Tbsp prepared horseradish
1 tsp celery seed
3 celery stalks
1 Tbsp granulated garlic
1 Tbsp chopped parsley
1 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
1 tsp dry mustard
1 Tbsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Peel and cut carrots into thin circles.
  • 2. Clean and cut celery into thin slices.
  • 3. Cut purple onion into thin half circles.
  • 4. Mix all other ingredients, whisking together to combine.
  • 5. Put carrots, celery, and onion into a large plastic container.
  • 6. Pour mixture over vegetables. Let this marinate for 2-4 hours.
  • 7. Serve as a salad with any meal.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your Copper Penny will taste. This is especially true for the tomatoes, onions, and garlic.
  • Sauté the vegetables until they are soft and caramelized: This will help to develop the flavor of the dish.
  • Use a good quality beef broth: The beef broth is the backbone of the dish, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a broth that is made with real beef bones and vegetables.
  • Add a little bit of sweetness: The sweetness of the tomatoes and onions is balanced by the acidity of the vinegar and the saltiness of the beef broth. If you find that the dish is too tart, you can add a little bit of sugar or honey to taste.
  • Serve immediately: Copper Penny is best served immediately after it is made. The vegetables will start to lose their crunch if they sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Copper Penny is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner, give Copper Penny a try.
