Shredded Carrot Salad with Carrot Tops, Currants & Toasted Cumin

A French-Inspired Gourmet Version of My Childhood Carrot Salad Recipe!
This salad is a gourmet version of the simple carrot salad I used to make as a child. Back then, the shredded carrots were tossed with a simple vinaigrette and topped with hard-boiled eggs. It was one of our family’s standard salads - not a week went by without me preparing a batch.
This salad, however, puts a new spin on the humble dish. Carrot tops (carrot greens) are chopped and then tossed with the shredded roots. They contribute another layer of “carrotiness” to the salad, as well as their cheerful green color. The salad is then tossed with an orange-scented vinaigrette and plump currants - both accentuating the carrots’ inherent sweetness. As a last touch, toasted whole cumin seeds are added for a delicious contrast to the sweetness of the dish.
This salad is wonderful served on its own, but it also makes a colorful, tasty side for any antipasti or tapas menu.
Bon appétit!
