Detailed step-by-step recipe with photos: Step 1
-
Prepare ingredients for carrot salad and sauce. I advise you to carefully choose carrots. A particularly tasty, tender and juicy carrot salad with garlic and mayonnaise is made from recently harvested root vegetables. In any case, vegetables should be juicy and sweetish, but always without bitterness.
Tip: for mayonnaise, use refined vegetable oil; olive oil can give an unpleasant bitterness.
In the recipe I use sweet grainy mustard, but you can use traditional “Russian” or “Stolovaya” with pronounced spiciness. With them the mayonnaise will turn out classic. You can take a little more or less garlic — according to your taste.
Instead of black pepper, pepper mixtures are suitable. If you want a more subtle spiciness, use only white or lemon pepper. The lemon in the sauce can be replaced with apple cider vinegar in the same amount.
Of course, you can use store-bought mayonnaise, but the taste will suffer. Therefore, I highly recommend trying the salad with homemade sauce.

Step 3
Transfer the carrots to a large salad bowl in which to serve them. Add 1 tsp. salt and mix thoroughly. You can shake your hands a little so that the carrots release their juice faster. Set aside for 10-15 minutes.
Tip: If desired, 1 clove of garlic can be added directly to the carrots.
