Description

Frozen baby carrots are small young carrots that have been washed, peeled, and frozen to preserve their freshness and flavor. These carrots stand out for their tender texture and sweet taste, making them an ideal ingredient for quick and healthy recipes, whether in stews, stir-fries, salads, or as a side dish.

Originating from the common carrot (Daucus carota), baby carrots come from traditional cultivation in regions such as Europe and North America, where they are harvested before they fully mature. Their freezing process helps retain their nutrients and makes them easy to use year-round without losing quality.

In terms of their properties, baby carrots are an excellent source of vitamins A and C, antioxidants, and dietary fiber, promoting visual health, the immune system, and digestion. Moreover, being frozen, they retain most of these nutritional benefits and offer the convenience of extended storage.

In different Spanish-speaking countries, baby carrots may also be known as "mini carrots", "frozen baby carrots", or simply "frozen small carrots", terms that vary by region but always refer to this same ideal product for cooking.
