Digging Deep
 Root vegetables acquire tons of flavor and nutrients from the earth surrounding them as they grow and mature. From Radishes to Rutabagas, and Yams to Yucca Roots, Ingardia Bros. proudly carries a wide variety of root veggies! This week, we're taking a deeper look at a few of our favorites:
Parsnips  
Parsnips have been cultivated since ancient Roman times. These root vegetables are often mistaken for white carrots, but they have a distinct flavor. As parsnips mature in the ground, pulling nutrients from the earth, they begin to develop a sweeter flavor. They're high in vitamins and minerals - especially potassium.

Beets

They contain the highest natural sugar content of all vegetables. Their natural sweetness and vibrant color make them a great stand-out ingredient in seasonal dishes of all kinds.

Yucca Root  
Delicious and versatile, this healthy desert root can be used in a variety of ways. Yucca Roots have a flavor similar to that of potatoes and a stringy consistency like a pumpkin. Yucca Roots are rich in vitamins and minerals and contain a concentrated dose of Vitamin C, and are full of antioxidants that neutralize free radicals.

Sweet Potato & Yams

Radish 
Ranging in color from pale to vibrant red and deep purple, radishes are a tender and crisp root vegetable. Their flavor is mild, only slightly peppery with almond-sweet notes. Radishes vary in color and can range from the size of a golf ball to a softball, and are delicious in any form - fresh, cooked, pickled.

Rutabaga, Turnip, & Salsify 
A once understated root vegetable, the turnip has recently found its way to some of the most popular restaurants across the United States. The rutabaga has a more mellow, golden appearance than turnips or potatoes, and when cooked, it turns sweet yet savory — like the richest golden potato you can imagine. Salsify is a more slender relative to the parsnip. It is also known as the 'oyster plant' due to its mild oyster flavor when cooked.
