Step 1
Prep and peel: Cut off the ends of the carrots and any greens. If desired, use a vegetable peeler to peel the carrots.
Step 2
Cut: If the carrots are very large, cut them lengthwise in half. Cut the carrots crosswise into rounds.
Step 3
Blanch: Bring a large pot of water to a boil and fill a large bowl with ice water. Blanch the carrots for 3 to 5 minutes, depending on their size. Plunge the carrots into the ice water to stop the cooking process then move them to a clean towel and pat dry.
Step 4
Freeze on a baking sheet: Spread the cooled and dried carrots on a baking sheet and freeze for about 5 hours or until frozen solid.
Step 5
Freeze in resealable bags: Transfer the carrots to resealable plastic freezer bags or freezer-safe reusable bags, label and date the bags, and freeze for up to one year.
