Instructions

Using a vegetable peeler, draw it firmly along the length of each peeled carrot to shave off long, thin ribbons, rotating the carrot a quarter-turn after every few passes. Continue until you reach the narrow core, then set the core aside or discard. Transfer the ribbons to a large mixing bowl.

In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, coconut aminos, olive oil, grated ginger, honey, turmeric, and 1/4 tsp salt until the honey is fully dissolved and the dressing is uniform.
