Cook’s Tip!
Did you know that you don’t have to peel carrots before eating or cooking them? Save time and skip the step when the carrots are blemish free and fresh. Just scrub and chop! This is especially useful when making smoothies or roasting carrots in a recipe.
Of course if you have an aversion to the skin, or it seems to have a bitter taste, grab the peeler! There are few hard and fast rules in cooking. Do it your way and enjoy.
