Carrots, Cooked

EverydayCooked

Cooked carrots are root vegetables prepared through boiling, steaming, or roasting, which softens their texture and enhances their natural sweetness. The cooking process increases the bioavailability of beta-carotene, a pigment the body converts into vitamin A, while retaining beneficial dietary fiber. This versatile preparation method makes them easily digestible and suitable for incorporation into both savory dishes and sweet culinary applications.
