How to Make S Wonderful Carrot And Raisin Salad

  1. Coarsely grate 1 pound of carrots.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the grated carrots with 1/2 cup raisins, 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional), 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon honey, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
