The food processor was the fastest and easiest way to shred carrots for this recipe. We also liked the meatier shreds it produces, though a box grater works fine, too. We kept this salad simple, but versions with toasted nuts or chopped dried fruit also were delicious. No tarragon? Use 1½ teaspoons chopped fresh thyme instead.
Tip
Don’t use old bagged carrots. This salad is all about the earthy, sweet carrot flavor.
