Parsnip - Guernsey

Pastinaca sativa

A delicate, long, white root with fantastic sweetness and an appetizing flavor. A variety with outstanding storage ability that is perfect for cooking. This carrot-shaped variety can withstand cold and frozen soil, making it harvestable practically all year round.

Two super tasty side dishes for this variety are parsnip fries and gratinéed parsnips, which go well with a wide range of dishes. The potential uses for this magical root vegetable are enormous, but our absolute top tip for Guernsey is to make a really creamy parsnip soup with fried parsnips and topped with watercress. Incredibly delicious and easy!

Parsnip is a good source of potassium and dietary fiber, as well as vitamin C. It is a nutritious root vegetable that helps to balance both digestion and blood sugar.

A big plus for this parsnip variety is that it is organic!
