Delicious! I didn’t have cream or milk but I had sour cream and was still great.
I had a cup of parsnips so I made one third the recipe with a white sauce made with whole milk. It's fine and will be a good accompaniment to the goat ragu made from the NYT recipes.
So much better than potatoes. Much lighter mouth feel with more flavor. Delicious.
