Carrots in Honey and Vinegar image

This recipe comes from "The Big Book of Preserving the Harvest" by Carol W. Costenbader. I made some a few years ago and they're very good. This is an easy recipe that even inexperienced home-canners can make. You will need either two pint jars or 1 quart jar, preferably wide-mouth to make packing easier. No need to sterilize, as you will be processing for 30 minutes. Remember to use the freshest possible produce. Don't use the ones that come in bags!

Time 50m

Yield 2 pints or 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb baby carrots
1 cup white wine vinegar
1 cup water
2 tablespoons honey, plus
2 teaspoons honey
2 teaspoons pickling salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 sprigs fresh dill

Steps:

  • Scrub the carrots and trim their green tops, leaving 3 inches, if desired. Remove the root end (the tip). Blanch the carrots in boiling water for 2 minutes, then immediately plunge into ice water. Drain well.
  • Combine the vinegar, water, honey, salt, and pepper in a nonreactive (stainless steel) saucepan and boil until the honey has dissolved.
  • Evenly divide the carrots into hot, clean jars, wedging the carrots and stacking some upside down.
  • Fill the jars with the hot liquid, leaving 1/2 inch of headspace.
  • Add 2 sprigs of dill to each jar. (You can add the dill before the carrots if you want to see it in the finished product.) Cap and seal.
  • Process for 30 minutes in a boiling-water-bath canner. Let the flavors marry for 2 weeks before using. Adjust for altitude if necessary.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong but my carrots turned out mushy. I think I cooked them for too long.

The carrots took longer to cook than the recipe said. I had to add some extra water to the pan.

These carrots are a bit bland. I think I'll add some spices next time.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less honey.

I'm not sure what I did wrong but my carrots turned out too sour. I think I added too much vinegar.

This is a great recipe for using up leftover carrots. I had some carrots that were starting to get limp and they turned out great in this dish.

I love the combination of sweet and sour in this dish. The carrots are cooked perfectly and still have a bit of a bite to them.

These honey vinegar carrots are a delicious and easy side dish. They're sweet, tangy, and slightly crunchy. I served them with roasted chicken and they were a hit!
