Using fresh carrots is not always possible, especially because they become stale if kept for long. Dried carrot flakes or powder could be an easy solution. They not only have a long shelf life but can also be rehydrated easily whenever needed.

Dried carrot stands out for its rich taste, which infuses with the overall flavour of the dish that it is used in. The sweetness of the powder or flakes is completely natural, healthy and there are no added artificial flavour and preservatives.

Carrot powder is naturally rich in Thiamine, Vitamin B6 and Manganese, dried carrots also boast of dietary fibre, Vitamin A, Vitamin K and Potassium.
