Refreshing cold salads

We’ve all eaten traditional southern carrot salad with raisins and sometimes pineapple, but here is one with more savory flavors than sweet. I will eat it but it’s not my favorite salad. I’m not sure why it’s called Korean Carrot Salad because there are no non-Rockdale ingredients in it.

Summer with Jesus
