Мethod of preparation

Begin by soaking the saffron threads in a tablespoon of hot water for at least 10 minutes, allowing them to release their full flavor and color. While the saffron is soaking, peel and thinly slice the carrots into ribbons using a vegetable peeler or mandoline. This will give them a delicate texture and allow them to absorb the saffron infusion effectively. In a large bowl, combine the carrot ribbons with the saffron water, ensuring the carrots are evenly coated. Let them sit for another 10 minutes to achieve that rich saffron taste. Meanwhile, lightly toast the pistachios in a dry pan over medium heat for about 3 minutes or until they become fragrant and slightly browned. Remove them from heat to cool. For the dressing, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Adjust seasoning according to taste. Drizzle the dressing over the carrots and toss gently to coat. Add the toasted pistachios and toss again to combine. Transfer the salad to a serving platter or individual plates, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy this vibrant dish that brings exotic flavors to your everyday meal.
