For a richer flavor, use brown butter in the glaze. Simply continue cooking the melted butter until it turns a nutty brown color before adding the honey and cornstarch. A pinch of sea salt or a squeeze of lemon juice can be added to the glaze to enhance the flavors and create a more complex taste profile. These carrots are also delicious served chilled as part of a salad or crudité platter.
