Micro Carrot Details
Micro Carrot is a unique and flavorful microgreen that brings the sweet, vibrant taste of carrots in a delicate, bite-sized form. These tiny, feathery fronds capture the essence of fresh sweet greens, offering a mild yet distinctly sweet flavor. With its tender texture and aromatic qualities, Micro Carrot is a versatile ingredient in both savory and sweet applications.
Chefs love the unique combination of flavor and versatility that Micro Carrot brings to the table. Its sweet, earthy profile pairs beautifully with both hearty proteins and light, refreshing vegetables, making it a must-have for creative cooks who appreciate the subtlety and beauty of microgreens in their dishes.
Recipes and Tips:
Micro Carrot is incredibly versatile in the kitchen. Its sweet, carrot-like taste enhances a range of savory and sweet creations.
In roasted carrots, Micro Carrot works beautifully as a fresh, vibrant garnish. After roasting your carrots, simply sprinkle this microgreen on top to add a burst of color and a more concentrated carrot flavor that contrasts nicely with the roasted sweetness.
For chicken noodle soup, Micro Carrot can be sprinkled on top of the bowl just before serving, offering an aromatic lift and adding an extra layer of sweetness to the savory broth. In carrot cake, this microgreen brings a fun and flavorful twist to the classic dessert. Garnishing with these sweet microgreens adds a beautiful visual pop and a touch of fresh carrot flavor.
Nutritional Facts:
Micro carrots are a highly nutritious addition to any meal, offering a concentrated dose of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Like mature carrots, they are an excellent source of vitamin A (from beta-carotene), which supports eye health and immune function.
They also contain vitamin C, promoting skin health and boosting immune defense. Rich in fiber, micro carrots aid digestion and support a balanced weight. Additionally, potassium in micro carrots helps regulate blood pressure, while folate supports cell function and growth, making them a flavorful and healthful choice for any dish.
Storage and Usage Tips:
To keep your Micro Carrot fresh and flavorful, store it in your refrigerator in its clamshell packaging. This packaging helps preserve the microgreens’ texture and vibrant taste.
