Hi, Katerine here.  kat asks whether parboiled parsnips fried lightly
in butter are period.  I haven't seen a recipe for that, but vegetables
are relatively lightly represented in the corpus, at least partly
because they were simply prepared (Taillevent even says so).

The recipes I know of call for boiling (there's a lovely soup of boiled
parsnips or turnips or skirrets in beef broth with sweet spices, for
instance).

Cheers,
