Chef's Notes
Do not rush the emulsification of the olive oil and lemon juice; letting them bind properly ensures every carrot slice gets kissed by the dressing rather than drowning in a pool of oil at the bottom.
Pro Tip
Let this salad sit in the refrigerator for at least thirty minutes before serving to let the carrots soften slightly and absorb the complex sweet and savory notes from the olives and raisins.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
If you dump all the roasted almonds in too early before chilling, they will absorb the moisture from the dressing and turn into sad, soggy little stones of disappointment.
