Tips:
- Choose the right sweet potatoes and parsnips: Look for sweet potatoes with smooth, unblemished skin and no signs of sprouting. Choose parsnips that are firm and have a smooth, unblemished surface.
- Peel and cut the vegetables evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly. Use a sharp knife to peel and cut the sweet potatoes and parsnips into uniform pieces.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: When boiling the vegetables, make sure not to overcrowd the pot. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Season to taste: Once the vegetables are cooked, season them to taste with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings.
- Use a potato ricer or food processor: To get a smooth and lump-free puree, use a potato ricer or food processor to puree the cooked vegetables.
- Add dairy or broth: If you want a creamier puree, add some milk, cream, or broth to the puree. You can also add butter or olive oil for a richer flavor.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: For a finishing touch, garnish the puree with fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, or thyme.
