Dill-Spiced Carrots
- 8 young carrots
- 1 cup dill pickle juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh cut dill
- 1 tablespoon minced chives
- 1 cup sour cream
- Scrape and trim the carrots and quarter them lengthwise.
- Simmer them in the dill pickle juice until they can be easily pierced with a fork, about 20 to 25 minutes.
- They will not soften, but will stay pleasantly crunchy.
- Chill overnight in the pickle juice.
- To serve, drain off the liquid and sprinkle the herbs on the carrots.
- Pass the sour cream in a separate bowl.
- Dill-Spiced Carrots should not be served on lettuce, but used as a salad garnish for cold chicken or a platter of cold cuts.
