Tips for preparation and use

Do I need to boil carrots before stewing

I don't see any need for this. Of course, you need to make more effort to grind raw carrots on a grater than to grate boiled ones. This can be vajno only for those who have pain in their hands (then boil the carrots in their uniforms, peel them and rub them).

What can you put in a sweet carrot filling?

If you have nothing but carrots, butter, sugar and salt, you can only get by with them. At the same time, you can take butter and butter (it will be even better).

But, nevertheless, it is advisable to put at least an apple in a carrot. Its acidity significantly changes the taste of stewed carrots for the better. With orange or lemon, the carrot mass acquires a festive aroma. If there are no apples, then you can put seedless grapes, cranberries, nectarine, dried apricots, prunes in the filling.

Stewed carrots with the addition of ginger, chili pepper (hot red pepper) turn out delicious, you can put a little black ground pepper (yes, in the sweet filling).

Salty carrot filling A salty version of carrot caviar, which can also be used as a filling for salty pies, pies, meat, vegetable, fish and pasta casseroles, it is prepared in about the same way, but instead of apples, orange and sugar, put onions in carrots, black pepper (or red hot) and salt.
