0.13 teaspoon ground white pepper

Instructions

Gather all of your ingredients for this glazed carrots recipe.
Place the carrots in a large saucepan and add enough water to reach a depth of 1 inch. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the saucepan and simmer the carrots until they are tender, approximately 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the water and transfer the carrots to a bowl.
In the same saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the brown sugar, salt, and white pepper, stirring until everything is fully dissolved.
Return the carrots to the saucepan and toss them to ensure they are evenly coated in the brown sugar mixture. Continue to cook and stir until the carrots are thoroughly heated and fully covered with the glaze, which should take another 1 to 3 minutes.
Serve these delicious glazed carrots hot, and enjoy!
