Whipped Parsnips Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add carrots, cover partially, and simmer 5 minutes. Add parsnips, and cover partially. Simmer until vegetables are very tender, about 15 minutes. Drain well.
• Return vegetables to saucepan, and stir over medium heat until any excess moisture evaporates. Transfer to food processor. Add butter, and process until smooth. Season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Can be made 4 hours ahead. Rewarm over low heat, stirring often. Transfer to bowl. Serve.

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes, parsnips, celery root and turnips and cut into 1-to-2-inch pieces. Combine in a large pot and cover with twice the volume of cold water; add 1 tablespoon salt. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, reduce the heat to medium and boil gently until the vegetables are tender, 20 to 30 minutes. (Insert a paring knife into a potato; there should be no resistance.)
• Drain the vegetables well and return to the pot. Let the pot sit 5 minutes over low heat to cook off any excess liquid. Run the hot vegetables through a food mill into a large bowl. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, then whip in the butter.

Steps:

• Combine parsnips, 3/4 cup milk and whipping cream in heavy large saucepan. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat until parsnips are tender and most of liquid has evaporated, about 30 minutes. Transfer mixture to blender. Puree until smooth, thinning with more milk if necessary. Transfer to bowl. Season parsnips to taste with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and sauté until tender, about 8 minutes. Add chicken stock. Boil until mixture is reduced to 1 1/4 cups, about 12 minutes. Stir in whipping cream, parsley and mustard. Season sauce with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, sprinkle veal chops with salt and pepper. Melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in another heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add veal and cook to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
• Spoon Whipped Parsnips onto 4 plates. Place veal chops atop parsnips. Spoon sauce around parsnips and serve.

Steps:

• To make the roasted garlic: set oven to 350 degrees.
• Cut off about 1/4-inch off of the top of the garlic bulb and discard.
• Wrap head loosley in foil and place on a small baking pan.
• Roast until garlic is tender (about 1 hour) cool.
• Press bottom of the cooled bulb to squeeze out the pulp.
• Transfer to a bowl and mash with fork.
• Cook the parsnips in a pot of boiling water until very tender (should take about 25 minutes) drain well, reserving 1/2 cup cooking water.
• Return parsnips to the pot; add in whipping cream, butter, nutmeg and mashed garlic (you might want to add in less than the whole bulb, just keep tasting!).
• Beat well with an electric mixer until smooth, thinning out with some of the reserved cooking water if the mixture is too thick.
• Season generously with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Place potatoes, parsnips and 1 tsp. of the salt in large saucepan. Add enough water to cover ingredients; cover pan. Bring to boil on high heat. Uncover; reduce heat to medium. Simmer 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
• Drain potatoes and parsnips; return to saucepan. Add sour cream and butter. Mash lightly, leaving some of the potato and parsnip pieces in chunks.
• Season with pepper and remaining 3/4 tsp. salt.
