Honey Roasted Carrots over Burrata with Pistachios FAQs
Can I use baby carrots instead of regular carrots?
Yes, you can use baby carrots, but adjust the roasting time as they may cook faster.
What can I substitute for burrata?
You can substitute burrata with fresh mozzarella or ricotta for a similar creamy texture.
Can I make this dish ahead of time?
You can roast the carrots ahead of time and reheat them before serving, but assemble the dish just before serving for the best texture.
How do I store leftovers?
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently before serving.
Can I use dried thyme instead of fresh thyme?
Yes, you can use dried thyme, but reduce the quantity to about 1/2 tsp as dried herbs are more concentrated.
