Storing Parsnips

It's a shame you want to lift them.

You'll be doing so before their flavour has developed, OK, they may be a good size, but you'll be loosing a lot in this department.

Despite their size, they won't be fully mature and I doubt they will store well at all.

There are some articles on the main site about this sort of thing.

If you click on the 'Growing Help' linky just under the banner at the top of the page, then scroll down to Allotment Foods, you'll find them there.  Parsnips may well be included there.

As they benefit from a good frosting which makes them sweeter, and why they stay in the ground as long as possible, you could try freezing them.  I've frozen fully mature parsnips with good results.
