Purple Carrots are a vibrant and nutritious variety of the classic root vegetable with a striking deep purple exterior and a contrasting core that can range from orange to yellow. When sliced, these carrots reveal a captivating color palette that adds visual interest to any dish. They have a crisp, sweet flavor with a slightly peppery finish that makes them ideal for adding a pop of color to salads, slaws, and roasted vegetable medleys. Their firm texture holds up well when cooked, whether they are steamed, grilled, or added to hearty stews. Purple Carrots also make for a healthy, eye-catching snack when enjoyed raw with dips or hummus. They are rich in anthocyanins, the antioxidants responsible for their vivid hue, and provide a good source of vitamin A and beta-carotene, supporting eye health and immune function.
