* How can small carrot roots be used?
Carrots should be peeled, blanched in boiling water, tightly packed in small sterile glass jars in an upright position and filled with boiling water, to which salt and citric acid have been added (for 1 liter of water, one incomplete teaspoon of salt and citric acid on the tip of a knife). Close the jars with lids and store in the refrigerator.
The carrots retain their flavor and all their beneficial properties until next year's harvest.
The contents of an opened jar should be used within 2-3 days.
