Preheat the oven to 325° F. Fold four 20- by 12-inch
sheets of heavy-duty foil in half crosswise, then open each sheet like a book and brush one "page" with 1
teaspoon of the melted butter, leaving a 2-inch margin all around.

heat. Add the noodles and carrots and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until almost
tender. Drain well and toss with the cream and half of the scallions, dill, salt, and pepper.

Fold the foil over, enclosing the food, and seal the
edges by folding over twice. Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. To serve, slit
