The dish consists of julienned carrots that are seasoned with a mixture of spicy and sweet ingredients, such as chili pepper flakes, garlic, vinegar, and sugar.
The salad is typically made by marinating the julienned carrots in a mixture of the seasoning ingredients for several hours or overnight. This allows the flavors to fully develop and infuse into the carrots. The resulting dish is a spicy, tangy, and slightly sweet salad that is served cold or at room temperature.
