Recipe information

  • Yield

    Serves 2

Ingredients

3/4 pound carrots
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons tarragon vinegar or white-wine vinegar
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
4 large romaine leaves
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon celery seeds

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    With a sharp knife diagonally cut carrots into scant 1/8-inch-thick slices and cut slices lengthwise into julienne strips. In a bowl stir together water, vinegar, sugar, and salt until sugar is dissolved. Add carrot and marinate 5 minutes.

    Step 2

    Drain carrot in a sieve, discarding marinade. Cut romaine crosswise into 1/4-inch-wide strips and in a bowl toss with carrot, oil, celery seeds, and salt and pepper to taste.
