Glazed Parsnips and Carrots

If you haven't tried parsnips, they are delicious. They look like blond carrots. They are sweet, a little earthy and floral, and pair beautifully with carrots.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 lb. parsnips
  • 1/2 lb. carrots
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 2 tsp. butter
  • 2 tsp. honey
  • 1/4 tsp. cinnamon (optional)

Directions:

Peel the carrots and parsnips, then cut in matchsticks. Put in skillet with the OJ, butter, and honey, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Don't use a lid, you want the liquid to reduce so that it is syrupy and glazes the vegetables. When the vegetables are done, sprinkle the cinnamon over, stir around to coat, and serve. This is also good with cardamom or coriander instead of the cinnamon.

Rum-Glazed Carrots

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine
  • 3 lbs. whole medium carrots, trimmed
  • (about 16 carrots)
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup dark rum
  • 1/4 cup raisins
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Directions

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add carrots and toss to coat. Cook until just tender and beginning to brown, about 30 minutes, turning every 10 minutes.

Combine brown sugar, rum, raisins and pepper in a bowl; mix well. Pour evenly over carrots. Reduce heat to low and cook 10 minutes. stirring occasionally. Spoon into a bowl and serve hot.

Tips from the 'Test Kitchen': Substitute 1-2 tsp rum extract and 1/2 cup apple juice for rum if desired. The carrots should remain whole while cooking for peak flavor, texture and presentation. Use two utensils, such as a fork and spoon, and turn carrots gently.

I use baby carrots and Captain Morgan Rum. (occasionally I'll also add some flaked coconut for presentation)

Serves 8
