Dried Carrot

Colorful • Flavorful • Versatile | Health Benefits for Humans & Pets

Carrot originally grew wild throughout Persia and was first domesticated in central Asia. Today, it is a staple vegetable in every cuisine worldwide. The sweet yet earthy root is colorful, flavorful, versatile, and is commonly used in both savory and sweet applications. Carrots pair well with peas, celery, and parsley.

Carrots are well known for supporting eye health(1), due to their high levels of beta-carotene. Studies show that carrots may also support healthy immune, cardiovascular, digestive, and cellular function(2). Carrots are also a healthy ingredient for our furry friends, such as dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and other animal companions(3).

Our wide variety of air-dried orange carrot cuts enable the addition of flavorful, nutritious carrot to many applications, including instant noodles, soup mixes, packaged rice meals, snacks, baked goods, and cake mixes. Carrots are also a popular ingredient in pet food.

Ask your sales rep about organic options, freeze-dried and puff-dried carrots, and fire-roasted puffed carrots from Culinary farms.
