Roasting

I bought parsnips one day at the grocery. I'd never had parsnips before. They languished in my fridge for a while until one Sunday I was making Chinese Roast Pork, and I decided I'd roast a mix of root vegetables to go with it. I had had success glazing summer veggies (squash, eggplant) with a honey-miso based glaze and roasting them, and it seemed to me the same treatment would work well for root vegetables; I veered toward the sesame side because I thought the heartier vegetables need the added umami of sesame oil. And the sesame seeds added a nice crunch and taste. Leftover roasted veggies play very nicely in a room-temp salad with wheatberries.
