Parsnip (Pastinaca sativa) is a biennial root vegetable related to carrot and parsley, with a white, sweet and aromatic root. The fleshy root becomes sweeter after the first frosts and is used in soups, broths, purées and roasted. The plant is cold-hardy, prefers loose, deep soils and has a long growing season. Its broad leaves resemble those of parsley, and the root can be left in the ground over winter. Parsnip is a traditional, nutritious vegetable that has returned to the attention of modern cooking.
