Can You Roast Parsnips Without Parboiling?
Yes, you can roast parsnips without parboiling them first. However, parboiling can be helpful to ensure that the parsnips cook evenly and become tender all the way through. If you choose not to parboil, be sure to cut the parsnips into smaller pieces and roast them at a slightly lower temperature (around 375-400°F) for a longer period of time to make sure they are fully cooked.
