Recipe for Glazed Baby Carrots



This method of cooking carrots emphasizes their natural sweetness. 

Ingredients

  • 3 cups baby carrots
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 tablespoon runny honey*
  • Salt and ground black pepper

Cook carrots in plenty of boiling, salted water until tender. Drain well. Tip into a warmed dish, add turmeric and honey and toss well to combine. Season with salt and pepper and serve hot.

* Runny honey: Warming honey makes it more liquid and easier to work with. Stand the jar in a saucepan of hot water for a few minutes, until the honey softens. Before removing it from the jar, also warm the spoon; you will find the honey slides off easily.
