We just dug this out of the garden yesterday (under a foot of snow). I've been anticipating this first harvest of the year since about the time I forgot how much work the fall harvest was. Can you guess what it is?
April 2 Edit: No this wasn't an early April Fools joke and since people are having a hard time guessing, I'll give a few hints. Ella guessed that these are parsnips. They are not. Nor are they carrots, ginger, or some odd kind of turnip or radish. By the way, did you know that they grow ginseng up here? It is not ginseng. Lisa said they look like something that should not be eaten. She's partly right. You would not want to take a chomp out of this strongly flavored food. It's usually eaten in small quantities mixed with other ingredients or foods.
April 8 Edit: Ok, I misled you a bit in the preceding paragraph. It is, indeed, some (odd) kind of radish. If you need a more direct hint, check out this link: Hungry for Horseradish.
