Its resemblance to the carrot is undeniable. However, its ivory color and forms the telltale. Parsnip, also known as Sativa Parsnip or white carrot, is a root that was born in Asia and Europe and has spread throughout the world through stews, roasts, purées, creams and even as a chip. Its aniseed flavor makes it very interesting so we have taken advantage of it to use it in this new recipe that we prepare today. Rich, fun and super simple.
