FLAVOUR IS A FRONTIER
Natoora French Purple Carrots
- Heritage purple carrots have been enjoyed for centuries, before they fell out
of fashion after the introduction of the now more common orange carrots. They
boast an attractive purple skin, and the flesh can be both orange or purple,
depending on the variety.
- Grown in the sandy soil of Northern France, these heritage carrots are
exceptionally sweet with a gentle mineral flavour.
- Francois grows various varieties - Purple, Sandy, Orange, Yellow - for their
individual colours.
- The untreated, mineral-rich ground in the area is ideal for root vegetables,
retaining essential water without compressing the plant.
- He picks every day, choosing to store the carrots in the ground rather than
refrigerating them for months.
