About Julienne carrots
Carrots are the most heavily processed vegetable on a New York produce list, and the cuts are not interchangeable: matchstick and julienne for salads and slaw, thin shredded for garnish and volume, hand-peeled whole carrots for roasting and plating, and portioned snack packs for service. Hand-peeled is the premium end because a machine cannot peel a carrot without taking the shape off it. Everything here starts from a cheap raw vegetable and adds a labor step, so the spread between two cuts is mostly labor and yield loss rather than the carrot itself.
Buying notes
The same cut is listed both as a single tub and as a multi-tub case; take the case only if the unopened tubs can be held cold, because the advantage disappears the day one spoils. Cut carrots whiten at the surface as they dry — that is water loss rather than spoilage, but it is what the customer sees, so buy to a few days of use.
