parsnips are gods among common root vegetables.a week without them is no good thing at all. i love celeriac almost as much, too - both i prefer roasted in the oven until crisp and caramelised, served over rice or couscous.

Celeriac tastes a bit like aniseed, doesn't it?Or am I thinking of something else.

Yep.Wow, celeriac is ugly. I'd never consciously looked at it before.

true, but they taste wonderful.i like their ugliness, too - they're one of those edibles that remain on our plates because they are cheap and taste great. there's no way to make them look like they weren't just cut out of the skull of some smelly alien.
