Steps:
- Put the carrots in an 8-inch-wide, 3- to 4-quart saucepan and arrange snugly. Add the butter, sugar, 1/2 tsp. salt, and enough water to just cover the carrots (about 2 cups). Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Cook over high heat, shaking the pan occasionally, until the liquid has reduced to a syrupy glaze and the carrots are tender, about 10 minutes. (If the glaze is done before the carrots, add about 1/2 cup water and continue to cook. If the carrots are done first, remove them and continue to boil the liquid until syrupy.)
- Lower the heat to medium low, add the tarragon, and toss to combine. Season to taste with salt and serve. (The glazed carrots can be kept warm, covered, for about 20 minutes.)

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh carrots and celery. If you only have access to pre-cut vegetables, try soaking them in ice water for 30 minutes before using to help restore their crispness.
- If you don't have tarragon on hand, you can substitute another fresh herb, such as thyme, rosemary, or parsley. Just be sure to use a light hand, as you don't want the herb to overpower the delicate flavors of the carrots and celery.

- If you're looking for a more substantial dish, you can add some cooked chicken, shrimp, or tofu to the carrot and celery mixture.
- Serve this dish as a side dish or as a light main course. It's also a great addition to a buffet or potluck.
