MOLASSES GLAZED CARROTS
This recipe produces fabulous sweet & sour carrots. The molasses lends a real depth and complexity of flavour. Recipe is from Bon Appétit Magazine (December 2008). I think it would work really well with parsnips too.

Steps:
- Melt butter in heavy extra-large skillet or pot over medium-high heat. Add carrots, 1 tablespoon molasses, and 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt; sauté until carrots are coated with butter mixture, about 1 minute. Add 4 tablespoons vinegar and enough water to almost cover carrots (about 3-4 cups) and bring to boil. Cover and boil 2 minutes. Uncover and boil until liquid is reduced to syrup and carrots are tender, stirring often, about 20 minutes.
- Add remaining 1 tablespoon molasses and 2 tablespoons vinegar to carrots and toss over medium-high heat until carrots are heated through and thickly coated with glaze, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoon parsley. Season carrots to taste with more coarse salt and generous amount of ground black pepper. Transfer carrots to large bowl; sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon parsley and serve.

MOLASSES-GLAZED RAINBOW CARROTS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Put the carrots on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Pour 2 tablespoons of the butter over the carrots and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Bake until the carrots are browned and soft, 20 to 25 minutes.
- While the carrots are baking, add the oil, molasses, cider vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, a pinch of salt and the remaining butter to a saucepan. Heat until melted, bubbling and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
- Transfer the carrots to a serving platter, drizzle with the molasses glaze and sprinkle with the mint and pecans.
VICHY CARROTS
Vichy carrots are a dish in which the vegetables are cooked through in water with a little sugar on them to create a glaze. Historically, the excellence of this preparation derived from the quality of the spring water in Vichy, a resort town in central France. Jody Williams, the chef at Buvette in Greenwich Village, from whom this recipe is adapted, adds sherry vinegar to the water, along with, eventually, some honey, shallots and a pinch or two of fresh thyme. Who knows if the Vichyssoise would recognize the result. But served hot, room temperature or cold, they are some fantastic carrots.

Steps:
- Put carrots in a sauté pan, season aggressively with salt and add a tablespoon of the vinegar. Add cold water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the carrots. Set pan over high heat and bring liquid to a boil.
- Turn heat down to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until carrots are just cooked through, about 15 minutes. (If pan appears about to dry out during this process, add a splash or two of water.)
- Once carrots are cooked through, discard any excess liquid in the pan. Add remaining tablespoon sherry vinegar to pan, along with the honey, olive oil, shallot and thyme, and cook for about 2 minutes to glaze the carrots. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately, or at room temperature, or cold from the refrigerator.
