Friends, today I have come to you to express my feelings about preserving carrots from our vegetable garden. I hope you will be very happy to see this beautiful moment. It is not necessary to describe the charming moment of collecting and preserving carrots from the vegetable garden. We have a wonderful vegetable garden with a pond. There were many beautiful carrots there this time. A small vegetable garden surrounded by greenery. The soft morning sun is shining on us, the tips of the carrots are peeking out from between the dewy leaves. These carrots, which have grown with care, water and love for more than a month, are now fully mature. It is time to collect them. There is a silent joy among the plants. The process of harvesting carrots begins very gently. The soil is loosened, the carrot leaves are pulled from below. At this time, the smell of the soil on the carrots reminds us of a close bond with nature. Each carrot is like a unique creation, long, straight, sometimes curved or with a funny shape.

After picking, the carrots are first shaken lightly so that the excess soil falls off. Then they are washed thoroughly with clean water. If desired, the soil or thick skin on the carrots can be removed with a light brush. However, rubbing too much can ruin the taste and nutrients inside. So this work has to be done carefully. However, when we stored them, we did not store them for long, and they can be cleaned very easily as long as we stored them. The leaves on the top of the carrots need to be cut off, because they can absorb the moisture of the carrots during storage. However, care must be taken not to damage the root carrots while cutting. After cutting the leaves, the carrots are allowed to dry for some time in a shaded, ventilated place, so that the excess moisture is removed.

This is the most effective way to keep carrots fresh for a long time. Dry sand is spread in a wooden or plastic box, the carrots are placed in one layer and then covered with sand. The layers of carrots and sand can be arranged one after the other in this way. This box is kept in a cool and dark place, such as a basement or a warehouse. If it does not take a long time, then storing in the refrigerator is also suitable. Washed and well-dried carrots can be placed in a polythene bag or airtight container and kept in the vegetable drawer of the refrigerator. In this way, the carrots can remain fresh for 2-3 weeks. For long-term storage, carrots can be cut into small pieces and blanched in lightly boiling water for 2-3 minutes, immersed in cold water, drained, packed in packets and kept in the deep freezer. This maintains the color, taste and nutrients of the carrots for many days. Another delicious way to preserve carrots is to make pickles. If preserved with lemon juice, vinegar, salt, spices, it can last for many months and also adds extra flavor to the food.
