Step:

  1. Peel a carrot and slice into 3-inch lengths.

  2. Boil carrots for about 4 minutes.

  3. Now for the tricky part. You wanna slice about 1/8 inch deep into the surface of the carrot along it's length, but do so at a slight angle. Then, moving over a little more than an 1/8 of an inch, do the same thing, but angle the slice towards the previous slice. This should allow you to remove a tiny wedge from the length of the carrot.

  4. Repeat around the circumference of your carrot column until you meet back at the other side.

  5. Now slice perpendicular along the column to yield these little carrot stars.

  6. Not sure what you wanna do with them, haha. Maybe liven up a salad or get the kids excited to eat their veggies or something. Make sure you send me some pics whatever you do.
