  7. Here are the exact ingredients/measurements:

    * ¾ cup hazelnuts, toasted and skinned
    *
    * ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
    *
    * 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
    *
    * 1 tablespoon honey
    *
    * Salt and pepper
    *
    * ¼ teaspoon grated orange zest plus 1/3 cup juice
    *
    * 1 fennel bulb, stalks discarded, bulb halved, cored, and cut into 1-inch pieces
    *
    * 1 pound carrots, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
    *
    * ½ cup minced fresh chives

    I just followed the video for the instructions, but it’s basically:
    1) Make the dressing
    2) Toast the hazelnuts and blitz in food processor until it’s powdery with some bigger chunks of nut.
    4) Cut the fennel/carrot into one inch pieces. Blitz the fennel 10-15 times ish until they are fine pieces. Process the carrots for 20-30 seconds until it resembles tabbouleh.
    5) Combine carrots, fennel, half of the hazelnuts and mix with dressing. Top with more nuts and the chives and enjoy!

  9. This is one of those recipes where I have to shake my head and ask WHY ?

    Why do you feature a recipe that includes an ingredient that most people who are just average home cooks don't have on hand or can't get easily? Yes those blanched Hazlenuts?

    There are three major grocery chains close to my home and none of them stock Hazelnuts of Filberts. That makes my source for these Amazon and the quality I'd have to buy and the cost I'd have to pay doesn't justify the small amount used for this recipe. Sometimes professional chefs who have access to anything they need, forget not every ingredient is available to the average home cook. That seems to be the case this time.

  12. I'm invited to a potluck cookout at the end of June, and had actually considered taking an old fashioned carrot and raisin salad. This looks better; just different enough to be unexpected, without being so weird that it's offputting. I think we have a winner!

  14. I love the carrot raisin, etc salad. I question how many people have fennel and hazelnuts in their house on a regular basis. That is the true beauty of salads – using vegetables you normally have available. I have had to search for fennel in grocery stores, and, although we enjoy it, it is expensive, and only available at one store nearby. Walnuts, almonds, and pecans all come in large bags and I always have them on hand. Hazelnuts come in small , expensive containers. So, I might make this with celery, walnuts, and a touch of fennel seed.

  23. That mayonnaisey carrot salad with raisins and pineapple is my favorite salad, and i look for it when i go to Buffett restaurants. I will definitely try this salad also. It looks like a winner.😀👍
