For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of ground cinnamon or ginger to the carrots while they simmer. If you prefer a less sweet dish, reduce the amount of honey and brown sugar to taste. Tzimmes can be made ahead of time and reheated. The flavors often meld and deepen overnight. Variations: Some recipes include other root vegetables like sweet potatoes or parsnips for added complexity.
