Dirt Candy's Carrot Buns Recipe

An ingenious vegetarian chef, Amanda Cohen uses fresh carrot juice to replace water in her dough, giving the Cantonese-style steamed buns their vibrant color and sweet taste. Filled with garlic and ginger-seasoned barbecued carrots, these bite-sized, plump morsels are dipped in a carrot-and-hoisin reduction (the rainbow-like arc across the plate) and paired with a crispy white carrot, cucumber, ginger and sesame salad. — Yasmin Fahr Click here to see the Dirt Candy Vegetarian Carrot Buns Slideshow.
