CUCUMBER CARROT SALAD



Cucumber Carrot Salad image

This is super easy, very tasty and travels well so it's great for picnics, lunch bags, whatever. It tastes wonderful at room temperature. From the Chicago Tribune, originally attributed to Ron Bilaro, a personal chef in Chicago. The original recipe called for 2 T. of the sesame oil but I knocked that down to 1 T. as we feel a little goes a long way with sesame oil. Add more if you wish.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1/2 teaspoon salt
fresh ground pepper, to taste
1 cup shredded carrot
1 English cucumber, peeled, seeded and diced
1/2 small red onion, cut in half and thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Whisk together vinegar, sesame oil, sesame seeds, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
  • Combine carrots, cucumber and onion in a medium bowl. Add the vinegar dressing and mix thoroughly.
  • This travels well and tastes great at room temperature.

Tips:

  • To make a refreshing and flavorful salad, use fresh, crisp vegetables. Look for cucumbers and radishes that are firm and brightly colored, and carrots that are smooth and orange.
  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the vegetables. This will help them absorb the dressing better and make the salad more delicate.
  • For a tangy dressing, use a combination of vinegar, sugar, and oil. You can also add herbs, spices, or citrus zest to taste.
  • If you're making the salad ahead of time, wait to add the dressing until just before serving. This will prevent the vegetables from becoming soggy.
  • Garnish the salad with fresh herbs, such as dill, parsley, or chives, for an extra pop of flavor.

Conclusion:

Cucumber, radish, and carrot salad is a simple but delicious side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's refreshing, flavorful, and healthy, and it can be easily tailored to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy salad recipe, give this one a try.
