Carrots aren't the most exciting veggie out there. For many of us, they were one of our first foods, fed to us as a pureed mush before we could even talk. After a lifetime of eating this root vegetable it's no wonder that few people get excited about cooking with them. But here's the thing: carrots are wonderfully sweet, very affordable and oh-so-good for you. You just have to cook them in a new way. We have those recipes for you.
Prepared into beautiful shaved salads, roasted with herbed creme fraiche and snuck into pork buns, these dishes prove that carrots deserve a spot on your plate.
