I grew up on greens and I have found carrot tops to be extremely

unpleasant in taste, raw or cooked.

I did wreck soup with them, not one person in my family would eat it

and it was my same old recipe except I added carrot tops, they are

strong and bitter.

Don't spoil your soup, saute a few first and see what you think. I

sdidnt care for them raw in my salad either.

I bought carrots with the greens still on them can I eat them?

I was thinking of adding them to my roasted vegetable soup.

Or can they be eaten raw, maybe I will add them to my salad.

Gayle,

 

I add them to soup all of time. You can use them in salads, but I

don't usually, because I find them a little 'strong' for my tastes.

Unfortunately we no longer have a bunny and never had a guinea pig.

We have 2 cats I would not give this to them.

I like planting the cut off tops of carrots in a rich damp soil and

seeing them grow into new carrots. Much like how we grow pineapples.

I'll try that. These are organic and so pretty and fresh I hated to not use what

I could. The goats will appreciate what I don't use though.

When we have given the horses carrots with tops on in the past, they will

carefully eat the carrots and leave the greens behind. Our horses are a little

bit spoiled though and very picky!

I had been composting them but someone told me about using them in vegetable

stock, I tried it and liked it. When I harvest my carrots sometimes I freeze

the tops in a bag and use them in stock later. Yesterday I added some fresh on

my seitan stock. They add a little tangy note and make it interesting. Onions

SKINS are also very good in stock (the yellow/brown ones only, not the red

ones).

My dogs like most veggies (not onions and onions are bad for dogs) they LOVE

carrots. If I give them a whole carrot just pulled out and washed they will

carefully eat every little orange part and leave the greens. On the other hand,

when I give them a radish, they will eat the whole thing, root and greens. Yes,

they eat tomatoes and cucumbers too.

Back to carrot tops, for me it is either stock or compost, both are good uses,

since my only animals will not eat them.

use for them? I think I read somewhere that carrot tops are high in something

(Oxalic acid??) so they can't be eaten in large quantities.

Ah! Thank you! I'll make vegie stock today. I am almost out of vegie stock and

the only powdered I can find has MSG in it and tons of salt. I " ll make some

vegie stock and freeze it in ice cube trays for when I need it.

My dogs love carrots so much my children can't make a snowman with a carrot

nose. Our one dog tackled the last snowman with a carrot nose to get the carrot

and eat it. The kids stood there in shock after all their hard work lay in a

pile of snow with the dog sitting on top happily eating " his " carrot!
