Zanahorias Aliñadas (Marinated Carrots)

December 21, 2017 – 6:34 am

‘Tis the season for roots and with the sometimes busy & chaotic nature of the holiday season it is always nice to have a dish that is meant to be served at room temperature.  We first made this dish several years ago as part of a Tapas Farmhouse Lunch we served to a group from […]
