THE EASIEST EVER CARROT-SESAME SALAD
True to its name this is a very easy carrot salad flavored with sesame oil. I found the recipe at justbento.com The salad stays fresh and crunchy even to the next day after making. In fact, the flavor mellows if you let it rest awhile.

Steps:
- Peel the carrots and shred them with a coarse grater.
- Put in a bowl with the chopped parsley. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
- The flavor mellows if you can let it rest for an hour or more (overnight is good).
- Drain off some of the juice when serving. The leftover juice is very tasty ad could be added to a green salad as dressing.
- VARIATIONS;.
- Add a tablespoon or so of toasted sesame seeds.
- Add some julienned red chili pepper for a spicy version.
- If you have access to an Japanese grocery, you can substitute dashi granules or konbu powder for the salt. You can substitute ponzu (a citrusy vinegar/condiment that makes a great salad dressing base) for the lemon juice.
