Instructions
- Set up your sous vide immersion cooker and set it to 183 F.
- Cut the carrots if necessary so they are a uniform size. If leaving them whole make them not wider than 1/2 an inch. Or slice them into half inch rounds.
- Put the carrots, butter and maple syrup in a vacuum bag. Add salt and pepper if desired. Seal the bag.
- If using a zipper sealed instead of a vacuum sealer the bag is likely to float during cooking. Be prepared to weigh it down.
- Once the sous vide reaches 183 F add the carrots to the water bath. Let them cook for at least one hour. They can cook up to three hours with no loss of flavor.
- If you aren't serving the carrots right away put the bag in the refrigerator. Continue with the next step when you are ready to serve them.
- Put a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When it is hot open the bag of carrots and dump them in the skillet along with all the contents of the bag.
- Stir the carrots and let them cook and start to caramelize. After 2 minutes add the bourbon to the skillet if desired.
- Continue to cook, stirring, for another 2 minutes until the carrots are nicely shiny and glazed.
Notes
- If you use purple carrots the color will bleed into the orange carrots.
- If you don't want to use bourbon leave it out, the carrots will still taste delicious.
- The carrots will keep for a week in the refrigerator if you want to sous vide this ahead of time and finish the recipe later.
