Carrot Crunch

This is an interesting relish to serve as an accompaniment to almost any meal. Make it 3 days in advance of serving, as it needs time for the flavors to blend.


4 large carrots
1 cup sugar
1 large lemon
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Peel carrots and finely grate them (or use a food processor). Place in a large bowl. Finely grate lemon peel and add to carrots. Squeeze the lemon juice over the carrots. Add sugar, stirring until dissolved. Store, covered, in refrigerator for three days to allow flavors to blend. Just before serving, stir in the walnuts. Makes 1 pint.
