Shaved Carrot and Radish Salad With Herbs and Pumpkin Seeds

Name: Shaved Carrot and Radish Salad With Herbs and Pumpkin Seeds
Cuisine: Israeli
Ingredients: 1/4 cup olive oil, divided; 1 cup raw shelled pumpkin seeds; 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin; 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more; 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice; 1 teaspoon honey; 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper; 2 pounds carrots, peeled, shaved lengthwise into ribbons with a vegetable peeler; 1 bunch radishes (approximately 10 radishes), thinly sliced on a mandoline or with a sharp knife; 4 cups (packed) mixed torn herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, dill, mint, tarragon, and/or basil; 1/2 cup chopped chives

Instructions

This salad highlights the many green herbs that are an essential part of Persian cuisine, especially in spring when they are just coming into season. This salad is a crunchy, raw counterpoint to a rich Passover meal, and while some seeds are not eaten on Passover, pumpkin seeds are okay, since a pumpkin is not a legume.
