Parsley Root

Here is a brief story of where our cartoons come from.  Kale Crusaders Headquarters is located down the street from a tiny Whole Foods Market.  Given the postage stamp footprint of this particular store, we were recently surprised to discover a new-to-us-vegetable: Parsley Root!

What does one do with Parsley Root? Anything else you would do with her root vegetable brethren, including:

Parsley Root Fries by Sarah Britton at My New Roots
Roast Parsley Root and Lady Apple Soup by Asha Pagdiwalla at Fork Spoon Knife
Root Ribbons with Sage by Jerry Traunfeld

P.S. Similar to Parsley Leaf, Parsley Root is full of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals!
