What are the main ingredients of the shoyu pickled heirloom carrots dish?

The main ingredients of the shoyu pickled heirloom carrots dish typically include flavors that enhance the natural sweetness of the carrots and create a tangy profile. The correct choice includes apple butter, walnut, green onion, and togarashi. Each of these ingredients contributes to a balanced flavor profile: apple butter adds sweetness and depth, walnuts introduce a crunchy texture alongside nuttiness, green onions provide freshness and a mild onion flavor, and togarashi, a Japanese spice blend, gives a kick of heat and complexity.

Considering the other options, none provide the right combination of flavors associated with shoyu pickling, which emphasizes umami and tang. The other choices introduce ingredients that would not typically be part of a pickling process aimed at enhancing the main component—the heirloom carrots—rather than complementing them.
