They can be refrigerated for up to three days.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you freeze glazed carrots?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, you can freeze glazed carrots, but it\u2019s best to slightly undercook them before freezing to preserve their texture. Let them cool completely, then store them in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to three months. Thaw them in the fridge overnight before reheating.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make this glazed baby carrots recipe ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, glazed carrots can be made in advance. Cook and glaze the carrots as directed, then let them cool and store them in the fridge. When you&#8217;re ready to serve them, reheat them gently in a saucepan or microwave.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you reheat glazed carrots?<\/h3>\n<p>To reheat glazed carrots, place them in a saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally, until they&#8217;re heated through. You can also reheat them in the microwave in short intervals, stirring between each to ensure even heating.<\/p>\n<h2>Glazed Carrot Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2069437\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/TOHD_2998_Jonathan-Melendez_8.jpg\" alt=\"Close up of Taste Recipes's Glazed Carrots served on a large dish with a green surface.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Jonathan Melendez for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>What can I serve with glazed carrots?<\/h3>\n<p>Glazed carrots pair wonderfully with roast chicken, turkey\u00a0or pork. They also complement vegetarian dishes such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/lentil-loaf\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/lentil-loaf\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">lentil loaf<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/greek-brown-and-wild-rice-bowls\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/greek-brown-and-wild-rice-bowls\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">rice bowls<\/a>, adding a touch of sweetness and color to the plate.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I make this glazed carrots recipe with regular-size carrots?<\/h3>\n<p>Absolutely! If you&#8217;re using regular carrots, simply peel and cut them into uniform pieces before cooking. You may need to adjust the cooking time slightly to ensure they&#8217;re tender.<\/p>\n<h3>Should I use salted or unsalted butter for the glaze?<\/h3>\n<p>Unsalted is best because you can control the seasoning. Yes, you can use salted butter, but you may want to adjust any additional salt to avoid the dish being too salty. The salted butter can add an extra layer of richness to the glaze.<\/p>\n<h3>How do I prevent the carrots from becoming too soft?<\/h3>\n<p>To prevent overly soft carrots, keep a close eye on them while cooking, and test for doneness early. You want them to be tender but still hold their shape, which usually takes 10 to 12 minutes when simmering.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For a zippy side dish, try this recipe.
