How to Prepare Carrots for Glazing or Roasting

Cut off the stem end.

Peel the carrots.

Cut into sections the length you want.

Cut the sections into wedges according to their size. For example, large sections may need to be cut in 5 wedges, while the thin end may only need to be halved.

If the carrots are old, cut out the tough core from each wedge.

If you want to round the edges, rotate them against a paring knife.
