Carrot Tsimmes recipe
information
Here is one of the many variations of this dish, which either accom-panies a main course as a vegetable or, when cooked with the meat, is served as a stew. Tsimmes is also the Yiddish word for a "mess" or "muddle"! Carrots are traditional at Jewish New Year. This carrot mixture is often browned briefly under the broiler or in a hot oven before serving.
