Carrot and Mustard Rillettes

Carrot and Mustard Rillettes

Even using just one bunch of small carrots makes a large serving, so save this for a gathering of hungry folks who like mustard and cheese. It doesn’t keep for very long, so you’ll need to use it all up within a couple days. (It doesn’t go bad, it just gets a weird texture).
