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.

CAROTTES RâPéES OR GRATED CARROT SALAD



Carottes Râpées or Grated Carrot Salad image

Very popular in France- you'll find it on any bistro menu. A simple salad of grated carrots and parsley, with a few other ingredients. The most important thing is the size of the carrots- they must be grated very thin. This salad is best with carrots alone. I would recommend storing the dressing and the salad separately until time to eat. You may want to add more oil or lemon, etc. But do not overdress. It should glisten, but not be swimming in dressing.

Grated Carrot, Kohlrabi and Radish Salad image

This recipe is based on the Vietnamese carrot and daikon salad that found in so many restaurants. (It also is used to fill vegetarian spring rolls.) My version is less sweet than the authentic salad and employs a mix of vegetables.

The influences here are Moroccan. The orange juice brings out the sweetness of the carrots. The juices combine in a delectable way, the salad sweetened all the more by the dates and cinnamon.

Salt to taste
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus additional for sprinkling
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 to 3 oranges (as needed)

CURRY-LACED GRATED CARROT SALAD



Curry-Laced Grated Carrot Salad image

The classic French salad is made with a more neutral tasting salad oil than olive oil. I'm giving you the choice here, as extra virgin olive oil has health benefits that canola oil does not have, but choose a mild tasting olive oil rather than a strong green one.

1/4 cup grated or finely chopped red onion (optional)
3 tablespoons capers, rinsed and coarsely chopped
Use 2 tablespoons lemon juice and omit the vinegar
Add 1 teaspoon curry powder and 1/2 teaspoon ground lightly toasted cumin seeds
Substitute 2 to 3 tablespoons buttermilk for 2 to 3 tablespoons of the oil
