Nice carrot dish. I used balsamic vinegar (the aged sweet kind) and it was good; I would add more next time.

    Loved the balsamic vinegar, but we didn't like the onion with it. So, next time we will leave out the onion! Otherwise, we will try these again. Thanks!

    Excellent! I love carrots and this is a lovely new way to serve them. I made the recipe as directed using balsamic vinegar, but had to sub minced green onion for the chives. I made quick work of the slicing by using a mandolin. The carrots and onion come out crispy tender and the chive (green onion) garnish adds another layer of flavor as well as color. I served this with BBQ grilled steak with Stick to your ribs Creamy mushroom sauce #70794 and Great Greek Green Beans #71244. Thanks Tebo, great recipe!

    I served these as a side dish with our Easter Dinner. I made them a day ahead, partly to ease the load on Easter Day, but I also thought the extra time would give the flavors a chance to meld. Actually, I thought they were better the day I made them. I sampled several, checking the 'doneness', while I was cooking them. I did not want to overcook, especially since they were to be reheated. The freshness seemed to have been lost when they were reheated on Easter. I followed the recipe exactly (using Balsamic and doubling the recipe). The chives (which I waited to add until right before serving) not only added another flavor element, they really brightened up the dish visually. These were delicious and I will make them again, but will probably not do so ahead of time. Thanks for the recipe!
