  • Information
  • Appearing a bit like a small Parsnip, Parsley Root has long been popular in Europe, where it has boiled and bubbled away in soups and stews for hundreds of years. Also known as Dutch, Hamburg or Turnip-Rooted Parsley, it has a pungent, earthy taste with a complex flavor and rich texture perfect for hearty cassoulets in combination with sausage or bacon, Beans and other winter root vegetables. These ivory, Carrot-shaped roots are topped with dark green flat leaves that may be used as regular Parsley, although it can be considerably more bitter in taste and tough in texture. Start Parsley Root indoors ten to twelve weeks before the last spring frost date.

    Average seed life: 2 years.
