Parsnips are great. I grow them in the garden and love to dip them in
flour and fry them...lovely! But yes, in stews or tossed in with a
roast they just add something and once you get used to them, well
they're simply a must.

Thing is about parsnips/turnips that always gets me is, they are never
offered on the menus in restaurants. I mean, I've never seen them...
