Did you know that
Purple carrots taste very similar to traditional carrots, although they appear slightly less sweet on the palate. The color depends on the active ingredients present: in addition to beta carotenoids, in purple carrots we find an "excellent quantity of precious anthocyanins, responsible for the characteristic color and extraordinary antioxidant properties. To fully appreciate the antioxidant therapeutic properties of purple carrots, it is however advisable to use raw consumption.- As long as the vegetables cook, prepare the gluten-free and egg-free crepes.
