Steps 5-8

– Let the steam release naturally and then remove the cooked carrots. – Using an immersion blender, blend it very smooth. If you don't have an immersion blender, wait till the carrot mixture cools down and then grind it in a regular blender. – Transfer this mixture to a heavy bottom pan. I love my Dutch oven for this. – Add the sugar and mix well.
