GLAZED GRILLED CARROTS
These glazed carrots, from Karen and Quinn Hatfield of the Los Angeles restaurant Odys and Penelope, are caramelized and sweetened from a quick hot turn on the grill, then tossed in a salty dressing of soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, garlic and ginger. Turning the carrots often and moving them around on the grill keeps them from burning. And if your carrots are burning but aren't yet cooked through, transfer them to a baking sheet and finish cooking in a 400-degree oven.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, rosemary, garlic and ginger until combined. Whisk in 2 tablespoons oil so dressing emulsifies; set aside.
- Heat grill to low. Coat carrots with oil and season with salt. Grill carrots, covered, turning as needed to prevent burning, until nicely charred and fork tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
- When carrots come off the grill, toss them immediately in the prepared dressing. Once they're coated, use tongs to transfer the carrots to a serving platter and garnish with green onion. Drizzle a few spoonfuls of the remaining dressing over the top.

MAPLE-GLAZED GRILLED CARROTS
These grilled carrots have a lovely sweet and smoky caramelized flavor, and are a nice change of pace at a summer cookout or dinner party. Use carrots that are no larger than 3/4-inch thick, or cut larger carrots in half lengthwise for even cooking. One pound should yield 6 to 8 medium carrots.

Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Brush carrots with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Place carrots on the grill, perpendicular to the grates. Reduce heat to medium and cook, turning them regularly, until carrots have started to caramelize and are cooked throughout, 14 to 18 minutes. Move them to indirect heat and continue cooking if they start burning.
- Brush carrots with maple syrup and grill 1 minute more before transferring to a plate. Serve immediately.

GINGER-GLAZED GRILLED THUMBELINA CARROTS
Sounds like a great way to cook carrots. Posted for safe keeping. I included the minimum time for marination in the prep time. Even with the Thumbelinas you might lose some in the grill!

Steps:
- Cut the carrots into even chunks that will not fall through your grill grate, such as just halved lenthwise if Thumbelinas, and also chopped to 1 /12" - 2" pieces if not Thumbelinas.
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl and toss well (or combine in a plastic bag and shake). Let marinade for 30 minutes or up to overnight.
- Heat a grill to a high flame. Place carrots on the rack split-side down. Cover grill and let cook for 3-5 minutes.
- Remove cover. Flip carefully once. Cook another 2-4 minutes or until the largest chunks have charred on both sides (removing smaller pieces that have charred first, especially if not using Thumbelina carrots).
- Let cool a few minutes & then serve while still warm. Great on it's own or in salads.
