Carrot Ribbon Salad Recipes

FRISéE AND CARROT RIBBON SALAD WITH ZA'ATAR-LEMON VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Combine shallot, lemon zest, lemon juice, and 1/4 tsp. kosher salt in a medium bowl. Let stand 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toast pistachios, 1 Tbsp. olive oil, and 1 tsp. za'atar in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Season with 1/4 tsp. kosher salt. Transfer to a small bowl; let cool and set aside.
• Add honey and 1 tsp. za'atar to lemon mixture and whisk to combine, then whisk in 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil in a slow, steady stream.
• Place frisée, carrots, parsley, 3/4 cup grapes, and half of the pistachios in a large bowl and drizzle with vinaigrette. Gently toss until frisée is evenly dressed; season with sea salt and pepper. Top with remaining pistachios and 3/4 cup grapes.

CARROT RIBBON SALAD

Steps:

• Slice the carrots into thin, long ribbons using a vegetable peeler.
• Place the carrot strips in a mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper.
• Add the garlic, chilli, vinegar, oil, sugar, soy sauce and sesame oil. Toss gently.
• Leave for 5-10 minutes.
• Before serving, sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped mint and coriander.

VEGGIE RIBBON SALAD

Steps:

• Whisk the oil, lemon juice and smoked paprika together in a large bowl with 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Use a Y-shaped vegetable peeler to thinly slice the carrot, yellow squash and zucchini into ribbons. (With the yellow squash and zucchini, it is easiest to slice the sides, working around and then discarding the core.)
• Add the vegetable ribbons, asparagus, parsley and chives to the bowl with the vinaigrette and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately.

CARROT, DATE AND FETA SALAD

Steps:

• Thinly slice the carrots into ribbons using a vegetable peeler or mandolin, including any remaining "stubs" of carrot. Soak in ice water until the ribbons firm up and curl, about 15 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
• Whisk together the cilantro, olive oil, honey, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the lime juice in a medium bowl. Add the carrots along with the feta cheese, almonds and dates, and toss until evenly combined. Serve immediately, or let the salad marinate a bit before serving.

HEIRLOOM CARROT AND RADISH SALAD

Steps:

• Use a vegetable peeler to peel each carrot lengthwise into long strands. Place in a bowl with radishes, green onions, parsley, cilantro, and mint.
• Combine garlic and lime juice in a small bowl and let sit for 2 minutes. Add honey, salt, and pepper and mix well. Pour olive oil in slowly, while whisking constantly until dressing is smooth.
• Pour dressing over vegetables and mix until everything is well coated.

CARROT RIBBON SALAD WITH GINGER, PARSLEY, AND DATES

Steps:

• Using a vegetable peeler, shave the carrots into long, thin slices, watching out for your fingers. Soak, along with any remaining carrot nubs, in a bowl of ice water until the slices curl, about 15 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
• In a large salad bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, ginger, honey, and ⅛ teaspoon salt. Add the carrots, parsley, half the almonds, and half the dates and toss to combine. Adjust the salt to taste.
• Top the salad with the remaining almonds and dates and serve.

RIBBON SALAD WITH ORANGE VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Using a vegetable peeler, shave zucchini, cucumber and carrot lengthwise into very thin strips., Finely grate enough zest from oranges to measure 2 tablespoons. Cut 1 orange crosswise in half; squeeze juice from orange to measure 1/2 cup. Reserve zest and juice for vinaigrette. Cut a thin slice from the top and bottom of remaining oranges; stand oranges upright on a cutting board. With a knife, cut off peel and outer membrane from orange. Cut along the membrane of each segment to remove fruit., In a large bowl, combine spinach, orange sections, green onions, walnuts, salt, pepper and, if desired, raisins. Add vegetable ribbons; gently toss to combine. In a small bowl, combine vinaigrette ingredients. Add reserved orange zest and juice; whisk until blended. Drizzle half of the vinaigrette over salad; toss to coat. Serve with remaining vinaigrette.
