A year or so ago my sister and I were trying to remember how our Mother made her carrot/raisin salad. It was a sort of staple during the summer at that time. Through trial and error, my sister managed to get a reasonable facsimile of Mum’s salad. (I don’t think Mum used mayo, since we didn’t have a fridge at that time.) Will keep your recipe on hand for future reference. Thank you!
