Boiled Parsnips
Ingredients
Directions
If young, scrape before cooking; if old, pare carefully, and if large, split. Put into boiling water, salted, and boil, if small and tender, from half to three-quarters of an hour; if full grown, longer. When boiled cut in half, pour over them melted butter, and brown in the oven.
Unless they are extremely tender, it is best to pare them. Take out the seeds, quarter them, and lay the pieces in cold water. Boil about half an hour. Drain well, pressing out all tne water; mash soft and smooth, and season with butter, pepper and salt, cream, and a little Hour.
