Korean-style carrot salad
Description
Perfect for an everyday table. Today, you can buy a ready-made spice mix used to make this salad. However, I prefer making this aromatic spice blend myself. Grate the carrots using a special mandoline, but if you don't have one, slice them into very thin strips or use a regular coarse grater. Garnish as desired and serve.
