So this is super easy.  I found the multi-colored carrots at the Summit farmer’s market.  Simply set your oven to 375 degrees.  Wash and dry your carrots and place on a baking sheet.  Drizzle a bit of olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt and freshly ground pepper.  Roast the carrots for 20 minutes, turn the carrots in the pan, add diced shallots, and return to roast another 5 minutes.  Remove from oven.

Toast the walnuts and place carrots and shallots on a platter.  Add the toasted walnuts.  Sprinkle a few golden raisins across the top.  Add a bit of crunchy, flaky sea salt (I used sel gris), and drizzle a little more olive oil over the top of the entire thing.  Serve while warm.

Super easy, fresh, and very good!

I live in Berkeley Heights, NJ and have lived here for about a year with my wife Tara. Prior to that we lived in Hoboken, NJ. I studied cooking professionally at the International Culinary Center in SOHO, focusing on classic French cuisine. Growing up, I've lived all over the country from St. Louis to Topeka, KS to Washington D.C. to Texas (Dallas and Austin). I love music and listen to a wide variety and may even mention it within the blog. I also am a huge sports fan, following The St. Louis Cardinals baseball team as well as Dallas Cowboys football (I don't want to hear about your hatred of the Cowboys...I've heard it all). Hope you enjoy the site!
