Categories     Milk/Cream     Potato     Side     Thanksgiving     Vegetarian     Quick & Easy     Parsnip     Fall     Gourmet     Pescatarian     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield Makes 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds parsnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
2 pounds russet (baking) potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 tablespoon plus 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Special Equipment
a potato ricer or a food mill fitted with medium disk

Steps:

  • Cover parsnips and potatoes with cold water by 1 inch in a 6- to 8-quart pot, then add 1tablespoon salt and bring to a boil, partially covered. Reduce heat and simmer vegetables, partially covered, until very tender but not falling apart, 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring cream, butter, pepper, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt to a simmer in 4-quart heavy pot over moderate heat.
  • Drain vegetables in a colander. Force warm vegetables through ricer into cream mixture, then stir to combine well.

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.
