Lammefjordsgulerod | Local Carrot From Odsherred Municipality, Northern Europe | TasteAtlas

Lammefjordsgulerod

Lammefjordsgulerod is a variety of carrot unique for its very high carotene and sugar content. It is extremely smooth and crisp and has low chances of discoloration when washed. The carrots are produced in the Lammefjord area in Odsherred on Zealand in Denmark, on a seabed that has a layer of silt, giving the vegetables their unique characteristics and a taste that comes from millenniums of deposits of dead plants, shells and animals in the seabed.


After the harvest, which is done by hand, the carrots are washed and packed under strict quality controls and sold depending on their length, short, medium or large, and their age - young, medium or late carrots. They can be eaten either raw or cooked and make an excellent addition to salads, various cooked dishes or cakes.
