How to: Carrots - FAQs

How to store carrots?

This vibrant vegetable can last for several weeks in the fridge if you store it correctly. For a small batch, simply trim the green ends off and store them in a container of cold water to keep them crunchy and enjoy within five days. For larger amounts, dry the skin and place the carrots on kitchen paper in the coldest part of the fridge. Carrots go limp when they are exposed to air, so it's best to use them quickly. Keep them away from apples, potatoes and pears as these release ethylene gas which will create a bitter flavour.

How to grow carrots?

This vegetable is actually very easy to grow, and you can then simply pick a bunch just before you plan to cook them. Try growing carrots in containers if you don't have a garden. Nothing beats the flavour of one freshly harvested and, best of all, they are naturally organic!

Can you freeze carrots?

Yes, carrots can be frozen. Frozen chunks – which retain their high vitamin A content – are handy for adding by the handful to healthy casseroles, soups, stir-fries and stews. If you want to freeze your own, choose the freshest ones you can find and blanch before cutting and storing in freezer bags.
