Boiled Parsnips

Rub and wash some parsnips well, but do not scrape them, put them in a saucepan with boiling salted water and boil until tender, which will take from one hour to one hour and a half, according to their size. When done rub their skins off with a rough cloth, put them in a hot dish, and serve with butter sauce, seasoned with a little pepper and salt poured over them.
