Ingredients
2 lb. small whole carrots with tops
4 6-inch sprigs fresh rosemary
2 Tbsp. butter
1/3 cup wild grape port jelly*
Directions
1. Trim and peel or scrub carrots, leaving about 1 1/2-inch of carrot tops, if present. Halve any thick carrots lengthwise. Place in a 4-quart Dutch oven along with the rosemary sprigs. Add lightly salted water to cover. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 8 to 10 minutes or until crisp-tender.
2. Drain in a colander; remove and discard rosemary sprigs (some rosemary leaves will remain). Add butter to Dutch oven; heat just until butter is melted. Return carrots to Dutch oven and toss to coat. Arrange carrots on serving platter. Top with some of the jelly. Pass remaining jelly.
