Tips:
- Grate the carrots finely. This will help them absorb the dressing better and make the salad more flavorful.
- Use a variety of raisins. Golden raisins, black raisins, and sultanas all add different flavors and textures to the salad.
- Add some chopped nuts or seeds. Walnuts, pecans, almonds, or sunflower seeds add a nice crunch and extra nutrients to the salad.
- Make the dressing ahead of time. This will give the flavors time to meld and develop.
- Serve the salad chilled. This will help the flavors pop and make the salad more refreshing.
