I wanted to do something with sliced star fruit and a pomegranate, but my usual exotic produce source had neither. After a bit of looking around, a bunch of baby carrots caught my eye. Hoping this isn't too out there for voters, even if it is an abstract challenge.

are you aware of a vegetable called 'salsify'? It's an old variant of the carrot and is currently very rare. It's something similar to the equivalent of a 'purple potato' - rich in Iodine - within the carrot family.
Very hard to find.
The name 'The Blue Carrot' which is often associated with French cuisine refers to this vegetable.
