Look for a nice firm carrot — we’re definitely not looking for flaccid here!
Big carrots can often have a sweeter flavor, but beware of their potentially woody texture.
Try to go for carrots with a smoother texture on the outside, and avoid any with many cracks or splits.
If the greens are attached, that can be a great signifier of quality: look for a vibrant color.
When it comes to color — whether orange, yellow, or purple — look for a deep, vibrant color, and avoid any green spots.
Remove any the greens before storage, as they sap the moisture out from the root itself.
