Lunch 9 Hr. 15 Mins.

Ingredients

6

6 servings

  • 4 bunches carrots with tops
  • 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1.5 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 0.125 teaspoon white sugar
  • 0.5 cup sliced almonds

Instructions

  • Remove greens from carrots and then remove and discard as much of the stems as possible, keeping only the leaves. Chop leaves to about 1/2 inch. Reserve carrots for another use.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; parboil greens for 2 minutes then strain and shock in ice water. Drain and squeeze dry. Place in a new bowl of cold water and refrigerate for 8 hours, or overnight, changing water 1 to 2 times during the process to help eliminate extra bitter flavor. Drain and squeeze again.
  • Mix sesame seeds, vinegar, sesame oil, soy sauce, and sugar together in a medium bowl. Toss in carrot greens and almonds and mix well.
  • Cover greens and refrigerate to marinate at least 1 hour before serving.
