Parsips tha facts

Jump to newest

Parsnips are vegetables and the root of the annual or biennial plant Pastinaca sativa, and there are a number of varieties available.

Parsnips are native to Europe and Asia, and are from the family Apiaceae, family of carrots, celery and parsley.

Parsnips become sweeter during a frost, due to some of the starch being converted to sugar.

Parsnips are cream in colour, and are typically conical in shape.

Parsnips can be eaten either raw or cooked, in soups, stews or casseroles; as well as side vegetables, made into chips or used as a starch replacement.

Parsnips were popularly eaten in Ancient Rome, and were sometimes confused with carrots due to similarities in colour at the time.

Parsnips, in Europe, were commonly used to sweeten foods before sugar cane was introduced.

The sap of the foliage on parsnip plants is poisonous, which can cause a type of burn on the skin.

Parsnips have a sweet flavour and a taste of nuttiness and anise, and are high in vitamin C, maganese, folate and fibre.

Parsnips, before harvest, are firm, but when harvested, turn soft, and are best stored in the refrigerator.

i love parsnips. they need to be heavily cooked though so they are nice and soft.

and at least they don't lie about keeping diabetes away.

I find them a very pleasant addition to a roast dinner, as long as the narrow end hasn't turned to charcoal.

The definition of Parsips is when one completes their alcohol beverage of choice in the designated number of sips (par).

It's origin was one of many terms created for the now popular game of pub golf and was the brainchild of Eric Bristol. It's current form was developed back in 1984, in the then secret location of the prototype Weatherspoons and has been subjected to very little modification since.

Related topics: Birdiesips, Eaglesips and Albertrosssips (the only hyphenless word in the English language to contain the same letter consecutively 3 times!)

See pub golf for other expressions, terms and rules.

Generally, parsnip contains more sugar than carrots, radish, turnips. It has calories (100 g provide 75 calories) equal to that of some fruits like banana, and grapes. Nonetheless, its sweet, juicy root carries no cholesterol, is rich in several health-benefiting phytonutrients, vitamins, minerals, and fiber.

Yeah but they taste like shit

Costa Blanca Spain...

Part boil until they soften (but not too soft) Place in a baking tray and brush with slightly diluted honey and bake in the top of the oven at 220. Keep an eye on them though. They go from underdone to charcoal very quickly. Best served when they are a golden brown, similar to roast potatoes.
