The seasoning on this is really good, definitely unusual and a nice change from butter or glazed carrots. However, I did find that my carrots came out a bit too soft. I might try this in a skillet next time so the liquid cooks off a bit quicker. Otherwise this was quite nice; I'll be giving it another try for sure. Thanks!
