- Submerge 3 pint jars on a rack in a large pot of water. Cover and bring to a rolling boil, then reduce heat to low to keep jars warm until ready to fill.
- Combine vinegar, water, honey, and pickling salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
- Working with one jar at a time, remove empty jars from canning pot and add 1/3 of the ginger to each. Pack carrots into jars, leaving 1/2 inch for headspace.
- Slowly pour hot brine over carrots, leaving 1/2 inch for headspace. Use a clean wooden chopstick to work air bubbles out of jars. Slip in additional carrots if space allows; check headspace again and add more brine if necessary to bring to 1/2 inch from top.
- Wipe jar rims, apply lids and bands (not too tightly), and return jars to canning pot. Cover pot and return water to a rolling boil. Process for 10 minutes. Turn off heat, remove pot lid, and let jars stand in the cooling water 5 minutes to help ensure a good vacuum seal.
- Move jars to a folded kitchen towel or wooden cutting board to cool completely before checking seals. Any unsealed jars should be refrigerated and eaten promptly. Store sealed jars in a cool, dark place. Sealed jars are shelf-stable at least 1 year.

Steps:
- Peel the carrots, then slice each one into rounds.
- Place the carrot coins in a microwave-safe bowl, cover them with water, and cover the bowl with plastic wrap.
- Microwave for 6 to 7 minutes or until the carrots are tender but not mushy. Drain the water and set the carrots aside.
- In a small frying pan, melt the butter, stir in the brown sugar and water, and cook for 1 minute.
- Add the carrot coins and toss to coat with the brown sugar mixture. Cook on low for 3 to 4 minutes or until the carrots are thoroughly glazed.
Tips:
- Choose the right carrots: Look for fresh, firm carrots with a bright orange color. Avoid carrots that are limp or have blemishes.
- Cut the carrots evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If the carrots are too thick, they will take longer to cook and may not get as crispy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the carrots will steam instead of roast and won't get as crispy.
- Roast the carrots at a high temperature: This will help them get crispy and caramelized. If you roast them at a low temperature, they will take longer to cook and may not get as crispy.
- Season the carrots well: Use a combination of spices and herbs to flavor the carrots. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cumin, and chili powder.
- Serve the carrots immediately: Roasted carrots are best served immediately after they are cooked. They can be served as a side dish or as a snack.
Conclusion:
Spicy Carrot Coins are a delicious and healthy snack or side dish that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and satisfying snack or side dish that the whole family will enjoy.
