Carrots or parsnips?

[purplepoppy]

Same shape, different colour and taste, but which reigns supreme in the root war?

I like both equally

Carrots are king

Parsnips are best

Parsnips can be really good if prepared properly. But carrots are way more versatile. They can be eaten raw, shredded onto salads, and are basic, starter ingredients, along with onions, celery and garlic, in many cooked dishes. They add sweetness.

The flavor of parsnips is closer to turnips, which are also good, but lack sweetness and are usually prepared in a more savory manner.

So carrots and parsnips are both delicious, but are not interchangeable. I wouldn't bring raw parsnips as a tasty lunch snack.

Roasted with a rosemary infused olive oil drizzled over and coarse sea salt and they're as good as each other.

I have a lady friend who usually gets five pounds of carrots each week who was sent parsnips instead but told me they needed too much whittling to get to the right shape for a proper spit roast...

I don’t think I’ve had parsnips before. But I do love a good carrot. The fatter and longer, the juicer and better. Perfect with the tip cut a wee bit.

I don't use parsnip at all. It's not even available in 90% of groceries here.

Parsnips are not common in the US. In fact, first time I had parsnips was in the UK. Both are tasty but carrots are king in the US.

I love parsnips but I don't really eat them outside of Christmas dinners so have to go with carrots

I eat carrots more often, but parsnips are great with a roast.

Parsley roots are sold in Germany and similar to parsnips.

Strictly spoken I like both, as well carrots as parsnips, but if I don't get tired of carrots easyly, the taste of parsnips starts to annoy me after some time. So, carrots it is for me ;0)

[NathanDavis]

I don't even know about parsnips... but I'd eat them anyway

[Insecure2]

I have always liked carrots even as a child I find them sweter and jucier than other vegetables.

[Bi4Life]

Carrots! Parsnips are a bit too strong for my liking. :)

[Pinay_ako]

I haven’t had parsnips in my life so I can’t say. But I like carrots

[exitseven]

I eat a lot of carrots. I never had a parsnip.

[RedInnocent69]

Carrots, but parsnips have been starting to grow on me.

[Hanrej]

On it's own, carrot. However parsnips makes the better ingredient in caseroles and soups.

[RebelinSteel]

Parsnips win for me
