HONEY-GLAZED CARROTS WITH GREEN ONIONS
Originally got the recipe from my HS foods class, but I have halved and modified it over the years. Serves four as a side (although two can eat it quite easily!) Doubles very well.

HONEY-GLAZED CARROTS
These sweet, citrusy carrots are an ideal accompaniment to savory, hearty main dishes, like Ebony's stewed chicken and dumplings from the magazine's first food editor, Freda DeKnight. This adaptation streamlines the usage of a pot and baking dish in the original and requires only a single ovenproof skillet. The dish tastes just the same and reflects Ms. DeKnight's commitment to fresh ingredients and vibrants flavors in her cooking.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Fill an ovenproof skillet that can fit the carrots with 1 to 2 inches of water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Add the carrots and add more water if needed to cover the carrots. Reduce the heat to simmer the carrots until they're tender but not soft, about 15 minutes.
- Pour the water out of the skillet, keeping the carrots in the skillet by holding them back with a spatula. Add the juice, honey and butter to the skillet and stir to mix (the butter may not melt all the way). Roll the carrots in the mixture, season them with salt and transfer to the oven.
- Bake, gently rolling the carrots once, until the carrots are glazed, about 15 minutes. Season to taste with salt and sprinkle with parsley.
HONEY-GLAZED CARROTS WITH CARROT TOP GREMOLATA
Dark honeys, like buckwheat, bring a touch of earthy sweetness to these lightly glazed beauties. The gremolata, made with the frilly green carrot tops, make a delicious and pretty finishing touch while adding to your #wasteless repertoire. If bunched carrots with tops aren't available, use parsley for the gremolata instead.

Tips:
- Choose the right carrots: Look for fresh, firm, and evenly colored carrots. Avoid carrots that are limp or have blemishes.
- Peel the carrots thinly: This will help the carrots cook evenly and absorb the glaze better.
- Use a large skillet: This will give the carrots plenty of room to cook without overcrowding.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you overcrowd the skillet, the carrots will not cook evenly.
- Cook the carrots over medium heat: This will help them caramelize and develop a nice glaze.
- Stir the carrots frequently: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
- Add the glaze ingredients at the end of cooking: This will help the glaze stick to the carrots and prevent it from burning.
- Serve the carrots immediately: They are best eaten fresh out of the skillet.
Conclusion:
Honey-glazed carrots with green onions are a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The carrots are sweet, tender, and caramelized, and the green onions add a pop of freshness and flavor. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.
