Did you know that carrots<\/strong> are rich in beta-carotene, an antioxidant pigment from the carotenoid family that has a beneficial effect on your vision, your immune system and your heart health? To savor the multiple benefits of carrots, avoid peeling them if they are fresh and scrape them rather than peeling them if they are stored.<\/p>\n

Did you know that carrot tops are delicious when washed and added to your vegetable soups?<\/p>\n

Purchase<\/h3>\n

Carrots can be found year round, but enjoy them freshly picked from May through July. Choose your carrots very firm, bright in color and with no obvious signs of spoilage, brown spots or stickiness. Make sure the tops are green and vigorous, a sign of freshness.<\/p>\n

Preserve<\/h3>\n

Store carrots in the vegetable drawer for up to ten days after purchase. Separate them from their tops for optimal conservation. Blanch and bag them in the freezer for several months’ conservation.<\/p>\n

Preparation<\/h3>\n

The carrot offers many possibilities for preparation and cooking. It is eaten raw whole, grated, in tagine, in the oven, juiced and in soup. To keep all of its nutritional values, brush it carefully but avoid peeling it.<\/p>\n
