One of the important heirloom vegetables from the famous Kyoto prefecture in Japan, Kintoki Kyoto red carrots are known for being sweet and delicious, with very little fiber and a creamy texture. They have a striking orangey-pink red color all the way through to the core.
As temperatures drop, the carrots protect themselves from freezing by producing more sugar in their cells, making them even sweeter.

The center shoots of Catalogna chicory are actually young flower stems, referred to as puntarelle. Puntarelle makes a delicious salad, but they are also great braised, roasted, and sautéed.
In Rome, the traditional dish is a salad: Puntarelle julienned, shocked in ice water until the strips curl up, drained, and dressed with an anchovy vinaigrette. Puntarelle is crisp, crunchy, slightly sweet, and has just a little bit of chicory bitterness.
Available locally at FreshPoint Southern California.
