I dehydrate them along with other greens. I then powder to my smoothies.

I used to eat them raw as a kid as we didn't have much else. I will try frying them in a little butter with some garlic honey from my fermented garlic. We started eating radish tops fried in butter and really can't get enough of them. I've been doing alot of foraging recently and found loads of things I really like.

I will add some to our vegetable juice. I was wondering if they were edible, and what was in them for nutrients.

I like preparing carrot juices but I never use the tops. I am going to start use them . the use of carrots tops in vegetable soups and stocks sound like a good idea ! I use the leaves of the radishes with omelettes mixture like frittata and spanish tortilla omellette and they are delicious. I add cilantro ( coriander ) to the mixture for an extra flavor and cleansing benefit of this herb. Thank you for the suggestions on how to use these carrots tops.

Lovely, I've been wondering what to do with them other than giving them to my rabbit or on the compost heap. Thanks.

@j7ndominica051 Ай бұрын

Nice. But if I buy carrots in a store, the tops are wilted. The small leaves don't stay whole long. There is a related plant, called ground elder, which you can get for free.
