  2       lb           Parsnips
                       Salt
    1/4   c            Warm heavy cream (or more)

 PEEL PARSNIPS AND CUT IN 1/2-INCH slices. Place
 parsnips in a medium- size saucepan. Cover with water,
 add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce

 parsnips are very tender when pierced with a sharp

 or through a food mill) until very smooth. May be

 before serving, add the warm cream and the butter, 1
 tablespoon at a time. Beat well. Add Grand Marnier to
 taste and season with salt and freshly ground white
 pepper. Sprinkle the parsley over.
