NOTES : Carrots have a natural sweetness that is enhanced when cooked with

honey. The vinegar gives balance and a subtle fruitiness. Several types of

honey are available today (orange blossom,

clover, wildflower). Experiment with different types until you find one that

suits your taste the best.
