VICHY CARROTS



Vichy Carrots image

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.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound carrots, young ones if possible, or older ones cut into lengths of around 1/2 inch by 2 inches, trimmed and peeled
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium-size shallot, peeled and finely diced
1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped
Black pepper, to taste

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.

Tips for Making the Perfect Carrots Vichy:

  • Choose the right carrots. Look for young, tender carrots with smooth skin and no blemishes.
  • Peel and cut the carrots evenly. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a large skillet or sauté pan. This will give the carrots plenty of room to brown.
  • Heat the butter or oil over medium-high heat. This will help the carrots brown quickly and evenly.
  • Add the carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are browned on all sides. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Add the chicken broth, water, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the carrots are tender.
  • Stir in the parsley and serve.
