Boiled carrots are something that many people don't enjoy. Some people prefer carrots steamed or raw. Like other vegetables, eating them steamed or raw may help retain some vitamins and minerals. Not everyone's teeth can chew raw or steamed carrots. It's not easy to dress up boiled carrots if you don't like them. Carrots in other dishes, such as casseroles, provide an opportunity to eat them as a secondary ingredient. With a little butter, boiled carrots are soft, chewy, and delicious. Add a little salt, or vinegar for different flavors. The sweet carrots recipe is a tasty treat style carrot dish.
