This is one of our favorites. If you don’t want to use fresh carrots, frozen ones work well, too, even a quart of canned ones. Cook them according to the package directions, and then add the glaze. You can slice your carrots a day ahead, and refrigerate, covered. Mix your brown sugar and honey in a small covered dish and refrigerate it overnight too. Serve in your best, prewarmed vegetable dish.
