No doubt what raw material is the star of this salad dose. It is parsnip.
Roasting in the oven makes the parsnip even more delicious. Pasi Liesimaa
Warm parsnip salad is created effortlessly. All you have to do is slice the roots and put them in the oven to roast.
– The parsnip is a gorgeous root. It has an authentic taste that cannot be confused with anything else. When you eat parsnip, you know what you eat, chef Risto Mikkola notes.
He describes the taste of the parsnip as a nutty and sweet aromatic. When cooked, the parsnip taste softens and intensifies.
According to Mikkola, the taste of the parsnip is definitely the best when mature, although of course you can eat the root even raw.
The parsnip may have been most accustomed to combining soups with broths. As a broth, the parsnip is one of the finest alongside carrot, leek, celery and parsley.
The essential oils in the parsnip make it flavor to aroma. Still, parsnip should not be labeled as a mere cook root. In the oven, it becomes a single time.
– When roasted, parsnip gets its rights. Then the sugars of the root rise to the surface. There will be flavor and color.
The parsnip can be used in baking in the same way as carrots in the carrot cake.

One mocha that many people seem to do easily is peeling parsnip.
– I rarely peel parsnips or carrots. I wash them well with the root or dish brush, remove the strain and then just chop into a suitable size or strips. Especially when the root is roasted, the shell softens to eat, and so does it when cooking.
According to Mikkola, just the bark roots taste better. Many flavors are near the shell.
– It is stupid to remove them by peeling.
Mikkola states that for some reason we have been struck by the fact that potatoes or carrots always have to peel.
Mikkola recalls that if the dirt on the root does not leave by washing, the vegetable should then be peeling.
