Sobre este ingrediente
Heritage Japanese red-fleshed carrot — distinct from the typical orange Western carrot. Kagawa and Kyoto produce the principal commercial supply. Distinguished by deep red flesh (lycopene-rich, vs typical beta-carotene), longer length (~30 cm), and sweeter / less-pungent profile. Central to Kyoto Osechi (New Year cuisine) preparation. Distinct from existing vegetable entries.
