Mammoth Sandwich Island Salsify is a biennial root vegetable belonging to the dandelion family, salsify is also known as the oyster plant because of its similar taste when cooked.

Mammoth Sandwich Island is cultivated for its ornamental purple flowers and umami-flavored root. The root is similar in appearance to a long, thin parsnip, with creamy white flesh and a thick skin.
