Carota di Zapponeta

Carota di Zapponeta is a traditional agricultural food product from the Apulian province of Foggia. These sweet and crunchy carrots are harvested between January and March, but when properly stored and protected from the moisture, they can hold their nutrient content and remain fresh for several months.

Due to their tenderness and sweetness, they are best enjoyed raw, but they can also be boiled, stewed, or fried.
