Steamed Carrots With Honey Mint Dressing

Sometimes the simplest vegetables, similar carrots, request a small polish to shine. I've ever loved to glaze carrots, cooking them successful chickenhearted broth, food and sweetener to make a sweet, brushed rootlike that glistens. But that doesn’t enactment for your vegetarian friends and it’s not precise springlike. In grant of warmer days, I’ve steamed the carrots here; dressed them with a substance of honey, pome cider vinegar and oil; and enlivened them with freshly chopped mint.

The nonstop signifier you chopped the carrots is not important. I similar to portion them connected the diagonal, giving the carrot a quarter-turn earlier each cut. The important happening is to marque each of the pieces the aforesaid size truthful they navigator evenly.

The carrots and dressing tin beryllium prepared (and refrigerated) hours successful advance. Add the mint conscionable earlier serving to support it from discoloring.
