  1. Cooking carrots in apple juice is a wonderfull idea! I didn't know if I should have drained the carrots before adding the other ingredients, but I thought it made more sense. I substituted butter, added salt and pepper, and used fresh chopped parsley. The cumin-carrot-honey-parsely flavor was wonderfull but I think it needs another layer of flavor. I added some fresh lemon juice, and that worked well very well. I think next time I would add salt to the apple juice and that might do the trick. Thanks Inez for another addition to my cookbook!
     
  2. Always another way to cook carrots and this is excellent. The cumin combined with the flavor imparted from the applejuice gives a subtle yet different flavor that does not detract from the carrots. I did not add sugar as my carrots are very sweet and using apple juice to steam them I felt any more sugar would be too much. After steamiming them I drizzled the oil over the carrots, mixed well then added the cumin and fresh chopped parsley - Nice color presentation and great flavor Thanks Inez for a winner
     
  3. Very good, Thanks!
     
  4. Great quick way to make carrots. I might use butter instead of olive oil next time.
     
  5. These were really tasty. I'm always looking for new way to spice up my veggies. I didn't have apple juice, so just steamed in water and they turned out great. Thanks for sharing!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!! I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch. We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
