• 2 tbsp. cider vinegar

Preparation

Step 1

Put the mustard, honey, vinegar and oil in a jar, season with salt and pepper, and shake until blended.

Toss the carrots with the currants, and nuts, if you're using these ingredients, and then pour over the dressing, toss the salad well and adjust the salt and pepper, if needed.  It doesn't suffer from being made ahead.
