Ingredients

  • Carrots with Salsa Verde
  • 3 large carrots, peeled and sliced on the diagonal
  • beet stems, chopped into half inch pieces
  • salsa verde (recipe follows)
  • 1/3 cup kalamata olives, pitted
  • Salsa Verde
  • 1 undercooked hard boiled egg, or just a raw egg yolk
  • 1 small garlic clove
  • 1/2 cup parsley leaves
  • 1 tablespoon capers
  • 3 oil-packed anchovies (optional)
  • 1/4-1/2 cups olive oil

Directions

  1. 1
    Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Salt well. Add the carrots, and cook until easily pierced with a fork. When they are still slightly underdone, add the beet greens and cook for a minute or two longer. Drain both and toss with salsa verde.
  2. 2
    Process the garlic, capers, and anchovies, if using, in a food processor. Then add all the remaining ingredients except for the olive oil, and process until well combined.
  3. 3
    Scoop the mixture into a bowl and slowly drizzle in the olive oil while stirring vigorously, until you reach your desired consistency. Use more olive oil if you're going to use it as a dressing for vegetables, less if you're going to spread it on crostini or use it as a dip.
