Pairing with Potato and parsnip soup

A delicious hug

Some dishes taste like pampering, and potato and parsnip soup is one of them. The potato is a classic ingredient in our cuisine, while the parsnip, with its taste between carrot and celeriac, is its lesser known cousin. Still, ready to surprise you: a true VIP, it was mentioned in De re coquinaria, the recipe book of ancient Rome.
Perfect for lazy days, this soup will warm you up with its simplicity and a touch of surprise. And to make it unique? Serve it with one of the three wines we recommend!
