Allrecipes / Julia Hartbeck
Combine water, orange zest and juice, lemon zest and juice, and carrots in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until carrots are tender-crisp, about 15 minutes.

Stir in sugar, cardamom, and salt until sugar is dissolved, about 30 seconds. Simmer over medium-low, stirring occasionally, until thickened and a candy thermometer registers 220 degrees F (104 degrees C), 40 to 45 minutes.
