Recipe

Carrots rolled in Taragon
The smaller sized carrots makes them ideal for this simple, elegant side dish.

Trim tops off 1 pound small carrots, leaving 1" green stems. Place in a medium saucepan with 1/2 cup water. Add 2 tbsp butter and 1 tsp sugar. Cover tightly and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes; uncover and cook until the carrots are tender and the liquid has evaporated. Toss with 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh tarragon. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper.

Description

This is our top choice for the small, tender, baby carrots. My grandmother always kept a bowl of baby carrots in ice water on her kitchen table for us kids to munch when we came in from the garden for lunch, and it was always empty by the time we left. The quick growing roots gain their color and flavor early, and their uniform 3 to 4 inch length also makes them great for canning. Very small core makes them super tender and juicy.
