Carrot and Beet Salad with Scallion Emulsion

READY IN 20 mins

This is a fresh salad with raw beets and carrots brought to life by a vibrant and flavourful dressing. You can mix the dressing into the carrots and beets and let it marinate for a few hours (or days for that matter) in the fridge or just drizzle it right onto the raw shredded veggies for a quick option.

Ingredients

Toasted sesame seeds and lime zest to garnish
Shredded beets and carrots
Dressing:
1 teaspoon fresh ginger
½ of a shallot
2 tablespoon lime juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 stalks green onion (scallion)
1 egg yolk
¼ - ½ cup grape seed oil

Directions

Add the ginger, shallot, lime juice, soy sauce, green onion and egg yolk to a blender.
Puree until smooth.
Now slowly with the blender running on low, add the grape seed oil until you get a nice pourable dressing consistency that is not too thick. **use raw egg yolk dressings within 5 days**
Peel your beets and carrots and then shred on a cheese grater.
Now either toss the shredded veggies with the dressing or arrange the undressed shredded veggies on a plate and then drizzle the dressing over top liberally.
