French Grated Carrot Salad

This classic French salad is featured on crudites (raw vegetable salad) plates in bistros and cafés. It can be served as a main course salad or alongside grilled meats, fish, or chicken. The recipe can easily be doubled. Each batch is different so plan on seasoning the salad with additional lemon juice or salt, if desired.
