Overall, I thought these latkes were just okay. I don't think I'll be making them again.

I found the horseradish creme to be a bit too spicy.

These latkes were a bit too greasy for my taste.

I had some trouble getting the latkes to brown evenly. I think I needed to use a little more oil in the pan.

These latkes were a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference.

I've never had parsnip latkes before, but I'm definitely a fan now. They're crispy, flavorful, and the perfect way to celebrate Hanukkah.

These latkes are a bit more time-consuming to make than traditional potato latkes, but they're definitely worth the extra effort.

I'm not a big fan of parsnips, but I really enjoyed these latkes. The lox and horseradish creme really helped to balance out the sweetness of the parsnips.

These latkes are a great appetizer or side dish. They're also perfect for a Hanukkah party.

I love the combination of flavors in these latkes. The parsnips are sweet, the lox is salty, and the horseradish creme is tangy. It's a perfect balance.

These latkes are so easy to make, and they're a great way to use up leftover parsnips.

I've been making latkes for years, but this is the first time I've used parsnips. I'm so glad I did! The parsnips gave the latkes a really nice sweetness and depth of flavor.

These parsnip latkes were a hit at our Hanukkah party! They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the lox and horseradish creme were the perfect accompaniments.
