Carrots With Raisin Fennel Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• Shave the carrots into long strips with a vegetable peeler. Place in a large bowl. Thinly slice the fennel and add to the bowl with the carrots. Chop enough fennel fronds to equal 1 tablespoon and add. Add the apricots.
• Whisk together the honey, vinegar and mustard. Add the oil in a slow, steady stream and whisk until combined. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Let stand at least 1 hour to allow the vegetables to soften. Sprinkle with the pine nuts before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Put the fennel in a medium bowl, cover with ice water and set aside.
• Put the beets in a 3-quart casserole dish and toss with the chicken broth, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil; if there is 1/4 inch or less of liquid, add 1/2 cup of warm water. Continue baking, uncovered, until the cooking liquid is reduced by half and the beets are fork-tender, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the vinegar, butter, remaining 2 tablespoons oil and mustard in a measuring cup. Strain the fennel and toss with the vinegar mixture in a large bowl. Add the dressed fennel to the beets, toss with tongs and continue baking until the fennel is crisp-tender, about 15 minutes. Remove the dish from the oven, stir the beets and fennel to coat with the sauce and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with the chives.

Steps:

• Slice the carrots 1/2-inch thick on an angle.
• Quarter the fennel bulbs lengthwise, cut into bulb to remove core and thinly slice, or roughly chop. Reserve 1/4 cup chopped fennel fronds.
• Halve and slice the onion. Fill a skillet with 1/4-inch water. Add vegetables then sprinkle with sugar and salt and drizzle with 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil. Simmer covered 20 minutes, and uncovered for 5 minutes and adjust salt. Toss vegetables with fennel fronds, dill and chives.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
• Cut the carrots in quarters lengthwise, then into 2- to 3-inch pieces. Spread them out onto 2 baking sheets. Toss with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake, tossing them once or twice, until the carrots are tender and brown along the edges, about 15 minutes.
• Add the vinegar, mustard, garlic, thyme, rosemary, some salt and pepper and the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil to a jar and shake to emulsify.
• Transfer the carrots to a dish or platter, pour over the vinaigrette and serve. The carrots will keep for 2 days in the refrigerator; serve at room temperature or reheat.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the hazelnuts out on a baking sheet and toast until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool and slightly crush (the bottom of a measuring cup works well).
• Add the coriander to a small skillet and swirl over medium heat until toasted, about 2 minutes. Crack the coriander and add to a baking dish along with the hazelnuts, shallots, vinegar, honey, 1/2 teaspoon salt, the cayenne and the juice of 1 orange. Whisk in the olive oil in a slow and steady stream. Set aside.
• Fit a medium, shallow pot with a steamer insert and add about an inch of water. Bring to a simmer, add the carrots, cover and steam until just fork-tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to the baking dish, toss gently and allow the carrots to cool in the vinaigrette at room temperature.
