Gorgeous Parsnips from KYV Farm

Parsnips are a root vegetable related, not shockingly, to the carrot. They are a bit sweeter and are great for soups or casseroles such as this gratin. I’ll admit that we have been roasting potatoes almost daily since I pulled out three boxes of ‘em at our farm pot luck and I was eager to do something new with them. This mixture of root veggies came out so well that it’s now going to be a regular in our rotation.

The inside of the gratin is nice and soft and I cranked the broiler for the last few minutes to get the outside nice and crisp, almost like chips. The texture of KYV farm potatoes is so buttery that you don’t need to add any butter and the onions, carrots and parsnips add nice sweetness.
