Cow Parsnip



Add young shoots to salads or cook. Roots have a rutabaga-like taste when cooked. The base of the plant can be used for a salt flavoring by drying and grinding.

CAUTION: Be sure you're not gathering water hemlock. They share the same terrain and their flowers look somewhat alike, also, they both have hallow stems.
