Scrubbed up beautifully didn’t they.<a href="http://nipitinthebud.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/dereks-carrots-washed-close-up.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2316" title="Derek's carrots-washed close up" src="http://nipitinthebud.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/dereks-carrots-washed-close-up.jpg?w=455&h=341" alt="" width="455" height="341" /></a>One of my favourite ways of <a title="preserving" href="http://gardenersvoice.com/category/preserving/">preserving</a> the natural sweetness of carrots is to saute them in a little butter or oil sprinkled with cumin seeds (add a splash of water or vegetable stock if they start to catch). They’re especially nice when the carrots are small enough to cook whole and with the skins on.
