Pureed Parsnips Recipes

Steps:

• Steam parsnips and garlic until tender, about 10 minutes. Puree in a food processor with olive oil until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Put parsnips in pot, season with salt and cover with water. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Cook until tender - the tip of a paring knife should easily go through without resistance, approximately 15 minutes.
• In a medium saucepan place the cream, thyme sprigs and garlic cloves over low heat and bring to a simmer.
• Drain parsnips and reserve cooking liquid. Place parsnips in a food processor with butter, or extra-virgin olive oil and a couple of tablespoons of reserved cooking liquid. Begin to process and add strained heavy cream mixture. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and puree until very smooth.

Steps:

• Peel cooked parsnips and puree them in a food processor or by putting them through a food mill.
• Combine the puree with the salt, sugar, melted butter, cream and Madeira, and whip together well with a spatula or whisk.
• Spoon the puree into a one-quart baking dish, dot with butter and sprinkle with the crumbs or chopped nuts. Bake in a 350-degree oven for 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Place parsnips in a large saucepan; add enough water to cover. Generously salt water and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to a simmer; simmer until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Puree parsnips in a food processor or food mill. If using a processor, take care not to overprocess or they will become gluey.
• Transfer pureed parsnips to a large bowl; whisk in salt, sugar, melted butter, heavy cream, and Madeira.
• Spoon parsnip mixture into a 1-quart baking dish. Dot top with butter and sprinkle with breadcrumbs or chopped nuts. Bake 20 to 30 minutes. Serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500°F.
• In a large bowl, toss the parsnips in the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Pour the parsnips onto a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
• Using a food processor, pulse the milk and garlic together until the garlic is pureed. Add the roasted parsnips and cheese and pulse until smooth, just until the mixture comes together. Serve warm.
• Roasted Butternut Squash
• In a large bowl, toss squash with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Put the squash on a baking sheet next to the parsnips, keeping the two vegetables separate, and roast until tender and golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Prepare the parsnip puree and transfer it to a separate bowl. Fold in the squash and the rosemary. Do not overmix. Taste for seasoning and stir in salt and pepper as needed.
• Fuji Apple
• Roast the parsnips for the parsnip puree and then lower the oven temperature to 425°F. In a medium bowl, toss apples with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Pour the apples onto a baking sheet and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, or until tender and easily pierced with a fork.
• Prepare the parsnip puree, and add the apples, bacon, blue cheese, and thyme. Do not overmix. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper as needed.
• Make Ahead
• The puree will keep, covered, for 5 days in the refrigerator. Reheat, covered, in a 350°F. oven for 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Bring the parsnips to a boil over high heat in a large pot; then reduce the heat and cook for about 20 minutes or until soft.
• Drain the water.
• Add broth, cream, butter, and horseradish. Using a hand-blender, puree the mixture in the pot.
• Transfer the pureed mash into an ovenproof serving dish or pan, such as a 7" x 7" square glass pan.
• In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper together.
• Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the top of the puree.
• Bake in 350- to 375-degree F oven until breadcrumbs are golden, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Peel the parsnips and chop into even sized chunks. Put in a large pot and bring to a boil.
• Boil for 10mins and add the cauliflower.
• Cook for 10 more minutes.
• In the meantime, sauté the onion and garlic in a small pat of butter until they are translucent.
• Drain the cauliflower and parsnips and put into a blender.
• Add the onion and garlic, remaining butter, horseradish and milk to the blender.
• Puree until smooth. If it's too thick add a bit more milk.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• If it needs more zip add a bit more horseradish.

Steps:

• In heavy large pot combine parsnips with enough cold water to cover. Place over moderately high heat, cover, and bring to a boil. Continue boiling until tender, about 30 to 45 minutes. Drain. Working in 2 batches, pureé hot parsnips, butter, and chicken stock until smooth. Transfer to large serving dish, stir in salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
