I have seen another Kudoz entry for this term, but the context is different here...
the text is about soups:
"servite la crema di carote *a specchio* nei piatti e guarnite con..."
Thank you! :)
p.s.
US English preferred - if there are any differences that is!

Selected
thin layer
Serve the carrot cream as a thin layer in the dishes.
In this case that's what "a specchio" means: the layer of cream is flat and glossy like a mirror in the dish.

serve it clear
One of the meanings of the adjective "clear" is "easily seen through; transparent: clear water."

glazed
ladle the glazed carrot soup into soup plates and garnish
It's just a guess really, although there are some recipe hits in google for glazed carrot soup.
