Ingredients:

  • 2 lb parsnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 lb russet ( baking) potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 tbsp plus 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Directions:

  1. Cover parsnips and potatoes with cold water by 1 inch in a 6- to 8-quart pot, then add 1tablespoon salt and bring to a boil, partially covered. Reduce heat and simmer vegetables, partially covered, until very tender but not falling apart, 30 to 40 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, bring cream, butter, pepper, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt to a simmer in 4-quart heavy pot over moderate heat.
  3. Drain vegetables in a colander. Force warm vegetables through ricer into cream mixture, then stir to combine well.
  4. Cooks' note: Potato parsnip purée can be made 1 day ahead and chilled in a baking dish, covered. Bring to room temperature and reheat, covered, in a preheated 450°F oven until hot, about 20 minutes, or in a microwave.
