Ingredients

  • 1 pound baby whole baby carrots, peeled or well-scrubbed, or 1 pound medium to large carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 2 tablespoons (30g) unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon (12g) granulated sugar
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) chopped parsley (optional)

Method

  1. Preheat sous-vide precision cooker to 84°C.
  2. Place carrots, butter, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a vacuum bag and seal
  3. Cook carrots in the water bath until fully tender, about 1 hour.
  4. At this point, carrots can be stored in refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  5. Empty entire contents of bag into a large, heavy-bottomed skillet and cook over high heat, stirring constantly, until liquid has reduced to a shiny glaze, about 2 minutes.
  6. Season to taste with salt and pepper, stir in parsley, and serve.
  7. If glaze breaks and turns greasy, add water a teaspoon at a time, shaking pan to re-form glaze.
