Creamy Quince and Parsnip Soup

This fruity and delicious soup will protect you perfectly during the cold season, as quince provides plenty of immune-boosting vitamin C and contains tannins and tartaric acid, which have antiviral and antibacterial effects. Along with vitamin C, parsnips are rich in potassium, a mineral that helps your heart function, balances your blood pressure, and lowers your risk for kidney stones. It's economical, easy to throw together with a few ingredients and incredibly versatile. Besides parsnip, you can also use pumpkin, root celery, carrot or sweet potato to make the soup.

 
  • 350 g Quince
  • 200 g Parsnip
  • 1 Onion
  • 1 clove Garlic
  • 3-5 cm Ginger root
  • 1 tbsp Butter (or olive oil)
  • 800 ml Homemade broth
  • 1 tbsp Freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 tbsp Balsamic vinegar
  • Walnuts, toasted and chopped
  • Parsley for garnishing
  1. Rub off the fuzz of quinces with a piece of kitchen paper. Wash and dry the quinces, quarter them, cut out the core and dice the quarters. Peel the parsnip, onion, garlic and ginger and also dice everything.
  2. Sauté the onion, garlic and ginger in the hot butter until translucent. Add in the quinces, parsnip and cook briefly. Pour in broth and simmer for about 20 minutes until soft.
  3. Puree the mixture with a stick blender. Depending on the desired consistency, you can simmer the soup a little longer or add in more broth. Taste and season with lemon juice, salt and pepper.
  4. Divide the soup among bowls and drizzle with the balsamic vinegar. Serve with the chopped walnuts and garnish with parsley.

I love the combination of parsnip and pear (or apple) in soup, but quince is something new and intriguing to me. I've got to try it - thanks for the inspiration!

I still need to try a quince, but I like the idea of using fruit with parsnips. Do you know how it would taste to replace the parsnips with apples? Happy new month. hugs-Erika

Your vegetarian soup sounds delicious and very healthy. I was thinking about making a parsnip soup this week too but haven't been able to find parsnips in Florida. Lovely presentation and photos especially the pretty mug.

What a curious association of ingredients, but these two must go together very well!

Yeah, it's a big no no from me, I don't want quince in my lovely parsnip soup LOL and no ginger either. But you can make me a quince compote and I will eat it with delight. In other news, parsnip is one of my all time faves.

This sounds amazing and I have all the ingredients at home so I will be making it in the next couple of days. We both love quince, (we have a large tree), so this is an interesting variation.
Many thanks, have a good day, cheers Diane

Hi Angie, I made a pot of parsnip and leek soup. My recipe is similar to yours. But, your soup is so white and mine turned light brown. Any input as to why that happened. Thanks, Bernadette, https://newclassicrecipe.com

@Anonymous I used lemon juice in the soup. Maybe that's why it didn't turn too browned.

Angie, I wish I could get my better half to eat parsnips! With my restrictions on any green vegetables, this soup would be perfect for me... Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

Wow! Ginger, lemon, quince and parsnip! Definitely not flavours I would have ever thought of blending together, yet it sounds delicious.

I am a sucker for soup of any flavour, so I shall definitely be giving this recipe a try - the thicker and creamier the soup, the better for me! :)

I've loved reading all your quince recipes. They make my quince jelly sound quite dull. I really want to try this soup now as I can't quite imagine how it would taste.
