Thank You Thank You!!
I LOVE Parsnips and was trying to think of how to use them raw as they'll be in season soon,.. I've only had them cooked (theyre great with honey/maple syrup & wholegrain mustard).
Question though.. what does 'sofrito' mean, ie 'sofrito for 5 seconds'..?

Oooooh! a Mexican dish! I love Mexican dishes. I've never tried parsnips either TheRawDance. I guess we'll be testing it out together. Whoever tries it first must post. I'm in no hurry though...I just grocery shopped.

(I would really like to try these in my squash blossom burritos!) I think I may bite the bullet and buy some parsnips at the farmer's market tomorrow!

You have done a beautiful job. Parsnips are one of the things I have not tried. I heard they are like a carrot but different. How do they taste?
