'Parsnip- Winter White' seeds
Pastinaca sativa
- Long white roots
- Smooth creamy flesh ideal for soups
- Flavour improved by frost
A parsnip variety with long white roots that have smooth creamy flesh which is ideal for soups. Flavour will be improved if left in the ground over cooler weather, including frost, which allows sugars to develop in the root. In cold climates parsnips can be left in the ground over winter to harvest in early spring. Parsnips have a sweet nutty flavour and can be steamed, baked/roasted or used to make chips or soup.
