About Organic Carrots Purple Haze
One of the most popular root vegetables in Britain, carrots are a very versatile vegetable. Sweet and tasty with a refreshing crunch, carrots are great to eat raw with yummy healthy dips like hummus and guacamole, and work well when roasted. Carrots are an excellent source of antioxidant compounds, and the richest vegetable source of the pro-vitamin A carotenes. Carrots' antioxidant compounds help protect against cardiovascular disease and cancer and also promote good vision, especially night vision. Carrots are an excellent source of vitamin A. In addition, they are a very good source of vitamin C, vitamin K, dietary fibre and potassium.
Although 'Purple Haze' looks like a real novelty it is in fact the orange carrots that are the new-comers! The original wild carrots were purple, red, white or yellow and it was 17th century Dutch breeders who first produced the colour we know today.
In addition to their attractive colour, Purple Haze Carrots are particularly sweet eaten raw in salads.
