GINGER-GLAZED CARROTS
The easiest, yummiest carrots you will ever eat! The recipe is just so quick and easy to make. My husband grew up hating carrots, but he is willing to try anything. When he tasted these, he asked, "What in the world did my mother do to carrots to make them so bad? These are delicious!" He now requests them ... usually about twice a week.

CARROTS WITH GINGER
Steps:
- Place carrots, orange juice, butter, sugar and ginger in large skillet over medium-high heat. Bring to boil; cover and cook 3 minutes. Uncover and simmer until liquid glazes carrots, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with chopped parsley.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, tender baby carrots. Look for carrots that are smooth and brightly colored, with no blemishes or bruises.
- Peel the carrots before cooking. This will help them cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the butter and ginger.
- Use unsalted butter. This will allow you to control the amount of salt in the dish.
- Use fresh ginger. Grated fresh ginger will give the dish a more intense flavor than ground ginger.
- Don't overcook the carrots. They should be tender but still slightly crunchy.
- Serve the carrots immediately. They are best when hot and fresh.
Conclusion:
This recipe is a simple and delicious way to prepare baby carrots. The sweet ginger butter adds a unique and flavorful touch that will make your taste buds dance. These carrots are perfect for a side dish or even as a snack. They are also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables!
