About Kyoto Red Carrot
Kyoto Red produces smooth, tapered carrots with a deep red interior and balanced sweetness. Closely resembling traditional Indian red gajar, it brings rich color and firm texture to winter cooking. The roots hold their shape well when cooked, making them especially suited to gajar halwa, simple sabzi, and everyday vegetable dishes.
Best grown in cooler weather, this variety develops strong color and sweetness through fall and winter, producing dependable harvests in loose, well-prepared soil.
Why We Grow It
We grow Kyoto Red because it brings the rich color and sweetness many cooks look for in winter gajar. Well suited to California’s cooler months, it grows reliably, producing vibrant roots that work beautifully in both traditional and everyday cooking.
