Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Salad
  • 1 large carrot finely grated
  • 1 tablespoon additive-free raisins whole
  • 1 tablespoon prepared walnuts coarsely chopped
  • butter as needed to lightly soften the raisins
  • homemade yogurt fermented for at least 24 hours; as needed to lightly coat

Equipment

  • Le Creuset Signature 9-inch skillet in Artichaut
  • Small spatula or wooden spoon
  • Fine grater
  • Glass or ceramic mixing bowl
  • Tablespoon measure

Method
 

  1. Melt only enough butter to make a thin film in a small skillet over low to medium-low heat. Add the raisins and fry them lightly, moving them now and then, until they look plump and feel soft but remain intact and unbrowned.

  2. Finely grate the carrot into a glass or ceramic bowl. Stop while the narrow shreds remain separate and dry, with no orange liquid pooled in the bowl.
  3. Add the softened raisins and coarsely chopped prepared walnuts. Add homemade 24-hour yogurt a little at a time and mix. Stop when the yogurt lightly coats the carrot and holds the raisins and walnuts through the bowl; carrot should remain the dominant color and texture.

Notes

Full GAPS after raw carrot, prepared walnuts, butter, and homemade yogurt are tolerated; not an Introduction Diet recipe.
The book gives one carrot, 1 tablespoon raisins, 1 tablespoon walnuts, and unmeasured butter and yogurt; the card preserves those unmeasured ingredients as needed.
The source gives neither a serving count nor preparation, cooking, total-time, or storage numbers; one-carrot batch describes the batch size rather than a serving claim.
