Does anyone else here grow your own parsnips?

Do you dig them in the Autumn, or leave them in the ground all winter and dig them in the spring, like I do?

I love parsnips! They make such a wonderful spring treat - fresh vegetables out of the garden in March.

How do you cook your parsnips?

I dig mine in the spring. I like them steamed, raw or any other way I get them.

We love parsnips and I par boil and fry in butter, mmmmm
so good.

Me, too. I also use little in homemade chicken soup and in beef stew and soup. They are also good roasted with other root veggies.

How about when the check-out clerk at the grocery asks "What's this?". Ditto for turnips, rutabagas and kohlrabi!

"turnips, rutabagas and kohlrabi"

I love those, too!

My Mom used diced turnips in beef veg soup. Adds a rich flavor.Grma sliced parsnips & fried them in a skillet.So good.

Love parsnips any way you cook them. I also like to cook equal amounts of parsnips and carrots together and mash them after you save the liquid for a pot of soup.

MY Grma used to make carrots & parsnips mashed....so good. Ppl can sure do a lot with a little when cooking from scratch & besides it tastes better.

My grandpa used to dig his up in the spring in southern Missouri.

Cube them drizzle with olive oil salt pepper bake at 350 till light brown.

My daughter liked them as french fries. I tossed them in egg whites and baked them and they are just like french fries!
