Parsnips are with the cooked meat?
Bread Sauce with the Soft Drinks?

Or is that just the little bastards in Safeways Crowfoot that change their minds and cant be arsed to put it back in the right place?

Sorry, I meant "mature" plastic = "Sharp"/"Extra old" plastic

Make yer own fer gawds sake, it's easy enough!

And you'll find parsnips in with the other 'fresh' *cough* produce

I can make my own but I just prefer not to when I'm trying to cook three lots of veg, roast potatoes, a chicken, make the gravy, ensure the dessert is going to be readu, warm the plates and get it all on the table still hot........you see my dilemma?

No.

Make it in advance????

I seem to manage it every year

(Actually it HAS to be made in advance to taste right IMO)

Oh she does and so do I.

I just wish she wouldn't find the damned parsnips.

Steve - how does your wife cook them?

If you haven't tried them roasted - you must! I hate boiled/steamed Parsnips, but I kill for roasted ones! YUM!

Roasted.

Actually they're not thaaaaat bad as long as it's only a couple of times a year.

At least they're better than yams, sweet potatoes or whatever you want to call them.

Roasted parsnips are the best ever........... make them a bit overdone and carmelised....... heaven! Also see fresh whole beetroot on the shelves too. Wash, remove the leaves, leave the skin on and cut into wedges, brush some olive oil on it and roast in the oven too

We get Yorkshire puddings in Atlantic Superstore in NS. They are kept alongside frozen puddings and desserts

If you want half-decent coleslaw buy the fresh shredded mix at the salad counter and add coleslaw sauce/mayo.

I'm hungry now

.

Mrs_P doesn't have any problems with her Yorkshires.

I shall ask her for her recipe.

How embarrassing is this going to be a Brit asking a Canadian for the recipe to make decent Yorkshire puddings.
