Stove-Top

This definitely has a distinctive taste, unlike the ususal sweet glazes. I love that it doesn't require pre-cooking the carrots. Don't be tempted to add more dressing; the nice thing about this is that you don't need much.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: Look for fresh, firm carrots with smooth skin and no blemishes.
  • Peel and cut the carrots evenly: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a large skillet or saucepan: This will give the carrots enough room to cook without crowding.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too many carrots to the pan, they will not cook evenly.
  • Stir the carrots frequently: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Add the glaze at the end of cooking: This will help the glaze adhere to the carrots and prevent it from burning.
  • Serve the carrots hot: Glazed carrots are best served hot, but they can also be served at room temperature.
