Begin by selecting fresh, vibrant carrots. Wash them thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt. Using a sharp vegetable peeler, create long, thin ribbons from each carrot, ensuring a smooth texture. Aim for about 4 cups of carrot ribbons and set aside in a large mixing bowl.

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together sesame oil, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, the juice of one lime, and honey. Whisk until well combined and adjust the balance of sweetness and acidity to your preference.

In the large bowl with the carrot ribbons, add green onions, toasted sesame seeds, and chopped peanuts. Pour the prepared dressing over the mixture and use tongs or your hands to gently toss everything together.

Cover your bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes to allow flavors to meld beautifully. Before serving, give it another quick toss to reincorporate the dressing.
