Instructions

  1. Put the carrots in a bowl, add the water, cover with a plate, and microwave for 5 minutes. Alternately, put the carrots and water in a small pot, bring to a boil, and simmer, covered, for 5 minutes or until the carrots are cooked through.
  2. Add the carrots, water, and remaining ingredients to a blender, and puree until smooth. Refrigerate until cold.

Notes

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ginger creates the brightest, freshest flavor over pre-minced/powdered ginger. Fresh carrots are key, too.
  • Blend thoroughly: Add enough ingredients to the blender for the blades to work properly and blend it until smooth and creamy. Stop the scrape down the sides of the jug if necessary.
  • Taste and adjust: To achieve the best well-balanced dressing, balance the flavors to your preferred levels. Taste it and adjust any element to your liking.
