**A Simple and Delicious Slaw Recipe**

In this recipe, we will be using some very simple ingredients to create a delicious slaw that is perfect for accompanying many different dishes. We have ourselves a food service carrot here, which is obviously enormous, so we're going to use about half of it for our root vegetables. To start, we need to cut the ends off the carrot, as well as the stem end. This will make it easier to peel the carrot later on.

Before peeling the carrot, we want to make sure that everything is nice and clean. We don't want any dirt or debris getting into our slaw. Once we have cleaned the carrot, we can start peeling it. We'll just go around the carrot and take off all of the skin, making sure to get only the first layer of skin off. This will help to remove any tough fibers from the carrot.

Now that we have our peeled and cleaned carrot, we need to prepare the other ingredients for our slaw. We are going to use a mandolin to julienne the apple. If you don't have a mandolin, it's perfectly fine to use a grater instead. The mandolin will give us very thin, fine strips of apple that will add texture and flavor to our slaw. Simply place the apple on the mandolin and slice it into thin strips.

The Apple of course is going to be much easier to work with than the carrot. We can simply cut along one side of the core and then square off the other sides, removing any excess flesh from the apple. This will give us a beautiful, uniform piece of apple that we can use in our slaw.

Next, we need to prepare the lemon zest and juice for our recipe. We're going to use a microplane grater to get all of the zest off of one entire lemon. Make sure to only use half of the zest, as we'll be using the other half in another recipe later on. To get the juice out of the lemon, simply cut it in half and squeeze it over a bowl or plate.

Now that we have our ingredients prepared, we can start making our slaw. Simply combine all of the ingredients together in a bowl and give them a good stir. We'll add a little bit of salt and fresh cracked black pepper to bring out the flavors of the dish. Finally, we'll add a dash of olive oil to bind everything together.

The final step is to taste the slaw and adjust as needed. If it needs more lemon juice or seasoning, now is the time to add it. This recipe is quite tart, so if you prefer a milder flavor, you can always reduce the amount of lemon zest used in the future. That's it! Our slaw is complete and ready to be served.

**Tips and Variations**

One thing to keep in mind when working with beets is that they will change the color of everything around them. This is completely normal and nothing to worry about. Simply be aware of this when preparing your dish, and you'll be fine.

Using fresh beets can also be a bit tricky, as they can be quite tough to work with. However, the results are well worth it. The sweetness and flavor of the beets will add a depth and complexity to our slaw that's hard to beat.

Finally, keep in mind that this recipe is perfect for accompanying many different dishes. From salads to sandwiches, this slaw is sure to be a hit. And if you have any other recipes you'd like to see me try on the channel, please let us know in the comments below!
