Carrot was present in Anatolia 2000 years ago. Its domestication is recent, between 6th and 9th century.

Greeks and Romans were not appreciating very much the white carrot of these old times. Skin and flesh full of lifs
were not very attractives. At the end of the 19th century breeding works brought to us the delicious red/orange
carrot that we use nowadays, Alongside them, old varieties revizited are present in our culinary world, offering trendy
new cuisine creations.
