Black Carrot (Daucus carota) is a rare heirloom variety producing striking deep purple-black roots with reddish-purple flesh, higher in anthocyanins than regular carrots — making it one of the most antioxidant-rich root vegetables available. Popular in traditional Kashmiri kanji (fermented carrot drink) and gourmet cooking. Known as Kala Gajar (Hindi: काला गाजर), the black carrot is prized by health-conscious gardeners for its extraordinary nutritional profile. The purple pigment comes from anthocyanins — powerful antioxidants linked to numerous health benefits. An unusual and beautiful addition to any kitchen garden.
