Once they’re soft, drain them fast. Then hit them with butter. Or olive oil. Or a squeeze of lemon. Or honey. Or just a flaky salt and black pepper. Carrots are the friendliest veggie—they get along with everyone.
Want a fun twist? Toss them in a little maple syrup and cinnamon before serving. You’ll feel like a fancy bistro chef. Or, you know, a person who just wants candy-like carrots. No shame in that game.
