Roasted carrots and a story
They come out of the oven tasting like they took their time.
He told a story from rehearsal while they roasted. I remember the story more than the cumin.

About this much
Adjust until it feels right.
- Carrots, whole if they are small, halved if not
- Olive oil, enough to shine
- Salt, cumin if you feel like it
- A little honey or nothing
- Parsley or cilantro at the end
Play it
A suggestion, not a command.
- 01Hot oven. Crowding is the enemy — give them a sheet to themselves.
- 02Oil, salt, toss with your hands.
- 03Leave them until the edges go dark in spots. That is flavor, not a mistake.
- 04A drizzle of honey only if the carrots themselves are shy.
- 05Herbs after they come out. Serve in the pan if the table is already set.
