Creamy Parsnip Soup Recipe

Parsnips are fragrant and sweet and they are also excellent to have in a soup. Parsnip soup is something I like to have when the weather gets cold, for me it’s comfort food. It is sweet, and has a well rounded delicate flavour of parsnip, which is why the vegetables used complement the parsnip quite well. I also use tofu for creaminess and also as a source of protein. Overall the tofu doesn’t add flavour so it doesn’t interfere with the parsnip flavour.
