While carrots were originally purple, red, and yellow in ancient Persia and Central Asia, the orange type was developed in the Netherlands during the 16th–17th century and quickly became the standard due to its appealing taste and rich color.

Packed with beta-carotene, which the body converts into vitamin A, orange carrots are not only delicious but also highly nutritious. Their flavor is mildly sweet with a refreshing crunch, making them perfect for eating raw, juicing, or cooking into a variety of dishes—from Indian curries and stir-fries to roasted sides and soups.
