Steps:
- In a kettle cover carrots with salted water by 2 inches and boil, uncovered, until tender, about 10 minutes.
- While carrots are cooking, cook honey, butter, and gingerroot over moderate heat, stirring, until butter is melted.
- Drain carrots well and in a bowl toss with honey glaze and salt and pepper to taste.
Tips:
- Choose the right carrots: Look for carrots that are firm, smooth, and have a deep orange color. Avoid carrots that are limp, have blemishes, or are cracked.
- Peel and cut the carrots evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If you are using baby carrots, you can leave them whole.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the carrots will steam instead of roast and will not caramelize. Roast the carrots in a single layer so that they can get crispy.
- Use high-quality honey: The type of honey you use will affect the flavor of the carrots. Look for a honey that has a strong flavor, such as buckwheat honey or wildflower honey.
- Add the ginger at the end: Ginger can burn easily, so it is important to add it towards the end of the roasting time. This will help to preserve its flavor.
Conclusion:
Honey carrots with a hint of ginger are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The carrots are roasted until they are tender and caramelized, and the honey and ginger add a sweet and spicy flavor. These carrots are sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
