Directions

  • If cooking in a sous vide water bath, preheat the water bath to 183 degrees and allow 45-60 minutes for cooking before serving.
  • Combine all ingredients in a vacuum seal bag appropriate for a sous vide water bath, and seal, trying to keep the thickness of the bag less than 1” for even cooking. Place in the water bath and cook for 45-60 minutes.
  • If not using a sous vide, add carrots to a skillet over medium heat with ½ cup water, cover, and steam until barely softened, then mix with all other ingredients and finish cooking until carrots are tender and glazed, most of the moisture should be reduced to a syrup.
  • For service, when carrots are tender, remove them from the bag, place in serving bowl, top with parsley, and sprinkle with coarse salt.
