Summer Roots

Carrots!! Couldn't resist these lovely ladies at the market. One of my favorite producers comes direct from Brittany and always has the best root vegetables with the dirt still intact.

I decided to do something simple since the carrots were sweet and tender. I tried a recipe from Food and Wine for spicy coriander carrots and since I didn't have any paprika, I substituted with piment d'espelette which I think has a more interesting flavor anyway. The chilled carrots mixed with the fresh coriander and cayenne werea perfect for all the hot weather we've been having.
