Parsnips are native to Europe and Asia and were introduced to North America in the 17th century.
The parsnip is a root vegetable closely related to carrot and parsley, all belonging to the flowering plant family Apiaceae.
In Europe, the vegetable was used as a source of sugar before cane and beet sugars were available.
