Ingredients
- 1/2 cup of refreshing water
- 2 tablespoons of flavorful cider vinegar
- A pinch of exquisite sea salt
- 2 carrots, elegantly shaved into strips with a vegetable peeler
- 1/2 jicama, meticulously peeled and sliced into delicate matchsticks
- 1 orange, peeled and artistically thinly sliced
- A sprig of fresh cilantro, added according to preference
- A dash of cracked black pepper to elevate the taste
- 2 leaves of escarole, torn gently
Step 1
Combine water, vinegar, and sea salt in a bowl, stirring until the salt dissolves completely. Gently place the shaved carrots into the mixture, allowing them to soak up the flavors. Let the carrots marinate in the fridge for a couple of hours, then give them a good drain.
Step 2
Arrange a beautiful plate with layers of the marinated carrots, crunchy jicama, juicy orange slices, and fresh cilantro. A sprinkle of cracked black pepper adds a touch of warmth, while a garnish of escarole adds a pop of color and freshness. Serve this vibrant and flavorful dish to impress your guests with a burst of unique and delightful flavors.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Keep your carrots in a cool, dry place to maintain their crunchiness and vibrant color.
- 2. Store your citrus fruits in the fridge to preserve their juicy goodness and tangy flavor.
- 3. When storing the salad, make sure to keep the dressing separate until ready to serve to prevent soggy vegetables.
