  2. Whisk orange juice, orange zest, lemon juice, olive oil, cumin, and salt.

  1. Pour the dressing over the carrots and toss well.

  2. Let the carrots rest so they absorb the citrus dressing.

  3. Toast walnuts in a dry pan if you want a deeper flavor.

  4. Add walnuts and parsley to the salad.

  5. Taste and adjust lemon or salt.

  6. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Tips

Add walnuts after the carrots rest so they stay crunchy.
