Purple Haze
from our plotDeep purple skin over a bright orange core, like a carrot drawn at sunset. It's sweeter than you'd think, and roasting only deepens the colour — a reminder that carrots wore every shade but orange for centuries, before the Dutch settled the matter.
in the kitchen
Roasted purple carrots with tahini
Roast whole until tender and slightly charred. Drizzle with tahini thinned with lemon juice, scatter with pomegranate seeds and toasted pine nuts. The purple deepens in the oven.
