CLASSIC FRENCH CARROT SALAD



Classic French Carrot Salad image

Every cook needs an easy, throw-together salad that can be made on a moment's notice. This nutritious carrot salad is as chic as it is classic. It's found in nearly every French cook's repertoire, as well as eateries across the globe. Crunchy, fresh carrots blend with bright, zippy lemon mustard dressing in what is perhaps one of the easiest preparations in authentic French cuisine.

Time 5m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 lb carrot, peeled and shredded
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pinch ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
1 mango, cut into chunks

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, whisk the lemon juice, mustard, and olive oil together until the dressing is completely blended. Stir the dressing into the shredded carrots. Sprinkle the carrot salad with the salt, pepper, and parsley, if using. Toss the salad again to blend the seasonings and chill it for 30 minutes before serving.
  • My Note: Sometime I added some golden raisins and walnuts. It's like carrot cake without the cake! with out the mango.
  • It's important to grate the carrots finely. We can get grated carrots at salad bars here, but when you make this salad, you have to use a fine grate. It makes a wonderful difference. When combined with beets and celery root, this is called the Parisian salad, and served at most bistrots. And so good for you. Russians do finely grated carrot salads too, and Moroccans.

FRENCH GRATED CARROT SALAD



French Grated Carrot Salad image

Want to work more carrots into your diet? Make up a batch of grated carrot salad every week. Standard fare in French cafes and charcuteries, this salad keeps well. If you have it handy, you'll be eating carrots every day. This classic version is made with a salad oil rather than stronger-tasting olive oil. You have a choice here, as extra-virgin olive oil has health benefits that canola oil may not. Still, choose a mild-tasting olive oil rather than a strong green one. For a twist on this version, try it curried, bolstered with capers, cumin and curry powder.

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil or canola oil (or a mix of the two), or use 2 tablespoons plain low-fat yogurt or buttermilk and 4 tablespoons oil
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar or white-wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Salt and black pepper
1 pound carrots, peeled and grated
1/4 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Whisk together the oil, lemon juice, vinegar, and mustard in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Add the carrots and parsley and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate before serving (I recommend making this 30 minutes to 1 hour ahead, then tossing again).
