I think parsnips are terribly underated as a vegetable. They are extremely versatile, have a beautiful sweet fragrant flavour, and are generally cheap. Parsnips are in season in the UK in the winter months ideally November through til about March. They are frost hardy and a great winter staple. I love them roasted alongside ...  Read the complete review

Shaped like a carrot, grows like a carrot.... sold next to the carrots, but a carrot it is not! For those of you who have never had the pleasure of a parsnip, they basically look like a white carrot. Just like baby carrots, you can get baby parsnips. Thats where the comparison ends for me, I dont think they taste like ...  Read the complete review

Well as you may or may not already know my mother and I are attempting to grow these in our back garden. We are using those big Ikea garden bags which open out into a large deep bucket type object, we then filled the bag with compost and soil. These bags are great for other root vegetables too because of their depth and draining capabilities. They ...  Read the complete review

Parsnips are a great root vegetable with a nutty taste which I have been eating for years. One strange but delicious way I've found of eating them is roasted, these are delicious and with a roast dinner they are even better, they're also good with roast carrots and peppers. Anyway not many people know much about them so here's some ...  Read the complete review

I was first introduced to parsnips about 4 years ago. It wasn't a pleasant introduction. My brother was a chef. My mother is not. My mother, wanting to try something different, got some parsnips, which she had heard from numerous sources were the food of cool people. She asked my brother how to best cook them. My brother, being a chef, ...  Read the complete review
