Boiled Carrots – Cook sliced carrots, uncovered, in plenty of boiling salted water until tender-firm, then drain and season. Start unpeeled whole carrots in cold water, add salt when it boils, then cook until tender. Rinse under cool water, then slip off the skins and finish with any of the sauces and seasonings.
