  • “It’s been over half hour after dinner and I STILL can’t get over how awesome this dish was!!! The combination of carrots, sesame, ginger and garlic is simply out of this world, with each ingredient contributing in its own special way. This recipe is perfect in every way, and even though I usually HAVE to add salt to everything, I didn’t even need a sprinkling of it here! The only thing I changed(?) was in not chopping the sesame seeds, because, um, they’re so tiny anyway! 🙂 I can’t gush enough over this, Bergy… thank you sooooo much!”

  • “Definitely a nice way to dress up the ol’ carrot & so easy to prepare, too! I’ll certainly be making these again & again! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed in Healthy Choices ABC recipe tag]”

  • “Very good. Very simple. I too skipped the chopping of sesame seeds. they are so little!A big hit all around. thanks!”

  • “These carrots are excellent, Bergy. I have the dark sesame oil, which is quite strong, so I used maybe 1/4 tsp of it so it wouldn’t overpower the rest. I finished the dish off with some honey, maybe 1 Tbsp, to give it some nice sweetness and shine. Thanks for posting!–Heather”
