Russian zakuski dishes are small, introductory dishes normally served to guests on arrival after a long journey and prior to an indulgent feast. Carrot is a popular and cheap base for many zakuski recipes. This particular concoction is entirely that, an amalgamation of several recipes. The taste may be a bit unusual but it is certainly pleasing. Plus, it also makes a great alternative salad side dish.
