The Hollow Crown Parsnip (Pastinaca sativa) has a 100-year history as a delicious, hardy, versatile root vegetable. This relative to Carrots grows to 10"-12" with a smooth, white, tender root. Eaten raw, it’s nutty and sweet, turning buttery and slightly spicy when cooked. Hardy to frosts and freezes, which sweetens the flavor. Try them roasted or puréed and topped with Parmesan cheese.
Good companion plants: Anise, Bush Bean, Garlic, Lettuce, Onion, Oregano, Pea, Radish, Rosemary, Sage, Tomato, Wormwood

The parsnip (Pastinaca sativa) is a root vegetable related to the carrot. Parsnips resemble carrots, but are paler in color than most carrots, and have a sweeter taste, especially when cooked. The buttery, slightly spicy, sweet flavor of cooked mature parsnips (often picked after the first frost) is reminiscent of butterscotch, honey, and subtle cardamom. (Source)
