Hearty, earthy parsnips are a jewel of the root vegetable world. But whenever I recommend them to family and friends, I always get the same question…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What actually <\/em>is a parsnip?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tubular veggie is like a cross between a carrot and a potato. Parsnips have a lightly sweet taste, with a touch of bitterness, and starchiness that is similar to a yam (not to be confused with the much-sweeter sweet potato). They are terrific<\/em> for showcasing the flavors of whatever is cooked along with them, including garlic and bold spices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oven Roasted Garlic Butter Parsnips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The next question I am asked, naturally, is… Ok but how do you <\/em>cook parsnips?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though just about everyone realizes how much they love them once they get a taste, most people do not know what to actually do<\/em> with fresh parsnips at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The easiest (and in my opinion, most delicious<\/em>) way to prepare them is to slice and roast the parsnips in the oven, and then toss them with a luscious garlic butter<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you cook parsnips in the oven they get baked to perfection, with a lightly caramelized and crispy outside, and firm but tender inside. These buttery, garlic-y veggie morsels pair perfectly with just about any main dish as a scrumptious, healthy(ish) side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are not yet a fan be prepared… This Garlic Butter Roasted Parsnips<\/strong> recipe is guaranteed to make a passionate<\/em> parsnip fanatic out of anyone!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
