Do you want to know more about this crispy carrot salad?

You can use the type of apple which you like the most but I would avoid the floury ones and choose the crunchiest ones like Fuji, Gala or Royal Gala, Golden Red Delicious, Pink Lady and Granny Smith.

Do not stop using the raw celery because, in addition to taking advantage of all its nutrients, it will give your salad a different flavor.

All the carrots They are, without a doubt, the protagonists of this recipe but to enhance the crunchy texture, do not hesitate to add nuts that are a source of Omega 3.

With nuts it is very rich but also with pistachios or hazelnuts. You can even substitute lightly crushed pumpkin seeds and sesame seeds for them.

As I told you before, this salad is great for take it to work or to the beach and pool. You can make an authentic jar salad or salad in a glass jar. But you will have to slightly modify the procedure.

Follow these steps to enjoy all your freshness:
Make the dressing as in the original recipe and put it in the bottom of the pot you are going to use. Continue with step 2 and place it in the pot as well. Finish by putting the walnuts and raisins on top. Close it with its lid.

It is important do not knock down the jar so that the dressing does not mix with the rest of the ingredients. This will keep them fresh and crisp. At the time of taking it, shake it well to mix it well and you are ready.

If you like citrus flavors, Feel free to also use a little lime to give it an even more refreshing touch.
