"Caramelized Spiced Carrots" news and stories

The one thing I always understood growing up at the dinner table was "leave enough carrots for your father." Carrots are probably my father's favorite vegetable and after coming across this recipe, I couldn't help myself but to think of him after tasting every tender bite.

I was lucky, growing up I experienced meals that were properly cooked and well seasoned. While other kids were afraid of eating their vegetables, I happily indulged. This recipe comes close to something I grew up on: brown sugared carrots. A little more involved, but oh-so worth it, these carrots bath in a mixture of buttery, pomegranate molasses. Bold spices like freshly grated ginger and cayenne pepper set this recipe apart from others.

Tip: While orange carrots will suffice, try visiting your local farmers' market for colorful varieties, which will pop on a white serving platter.
