Carrot cake

The recipe for a cake from boiled carrots Carrots are loved by mankind for about 3000 years. True, until the XII century carrots in Europe consumed more horses than people, while resourceful Spaniards did not serve carrots with vinegar and olive oil. Approximately at the same time, but Italians began to cook it with honey and serve for dessert. And if in Spain and Italy carrots were used for food, then in England the leaves of this vegetable were decorated with hair. By the way, initially the carrot was not the usual orange color. The wild carrot that grew in the territory of modern Afghanistan was purple and only as a result of garden experiments it became at first pale white, then red, and only then bright orange. This "carrot" color appeared thanks to carotene and scientists from Denmark, who were able to take it out. Sweet and juicy - it is firmly entrenched in the composition of thousands of dishes and, of course, as an independent dish. Carrots can act as a snack or ingredient in a salad. This vegetable looks great in broth, second course and even in dessert.
