Parsnips.

[Doreen]

Please could anyone tell me if the parsnips are okay to eat if they have brown markings on them? Thank you.

[Mrs Dobby]

The brown marks are usually a sign that they've been nibbled by the carrot root fly, as long as you cut out / peel those bits, then they are perfectly fine to eat! Well done you having parsnips this year, ours all failed!

Thank you for the reply, it is the first time I have grown parsnips.
