I picked several handfuls of carrots today. The Houston clay soil makes carrot growing difficult at best. These carrots were from a bed that is about 4 years old. The soil is beginning to loosen but I still wind up with many two, three and sometimes four legged carrots.
Roasting size. I grow Danvers Half long and Scarlet Nantes varieties.?
Today’s bigger carrots will be destined for roasting. The small ones were cut thin and sautéed in butter. I added a little sea salt for flavor and halfway through I drizzled some of my raw honey over the simmering morsels. Cooked just long enough – not too soft and not too crunchy. The only complaint…..I didn’t make enough. Next time Hun!

They are so amazingly sweet when picked fresh and enjoyed immediately. I have a garden sink and I will rinse a few off off and snack as I work in the garden.
