MOROCCAN SALAD OF RAW GRATED CARROTS/CITRUS CINNAMON DRESSING
Recipe comes from Mediterranean Fresh by Joyce Goldstein. Her directions are confusing about the cooking of the carrots. What she exactly writes is "For carrots with a bit more body and texture, you need to cook them briefly, as they are not porous enough to absorb the flavors of a salad dressing. For optimum flavor, dress carrots while they are still warm. You may warm the grated carrots in the dressing or serve as is." I am thinking (big thinker here) maybe 2 minutes? I also think buying those already grated carrots would be mighty handy. Use only 1/4 cup of the dressing, and use the remainder of the dressing for a beet, orange, and greens salad.

[email protected]I found the dressing to be a bit too sour for my taste, but I liked the combination of carrots and citrus. Next time, I'll try using less lemon juice.
