Tuberous parsley (Petroselinum crispum var. tuberosum)
Tuberous parsley, a little-known cousin of flat-leaf parsley and curly parsley, is mainly grown for its beautiful large white root with a very mild and sweet taste. It is cooked like carrots, celeriac, or parsnips. The fragrant leaves are also eaten like that of common parsley, but harvest in moderation so as not to weaken the root.
