Norah Grace loves fresh fruits and veggies and I should eat more of them.  The Boss ordered a Misfits Market Box last week and it arrived today.  Inside the box was a nice assortment of stuff...some I have no idea what to do with!!! Anybody out here in Eggland have recipes for turnips or rutabaga

  • Turnips roots are actually good cut thin and left raw. I am away from my cookbooks at the moment or I could look it up for you.
    As for rutabaga, I partially agree with Botch. I would just skip the boiling stage before throwing them out.
  • I’ve only had turnips peeled , boiled , butter and salt . Worked for me

    Cube turnips, potatoes, parsnips, rutabagas, carrots, etc. put on cookie sheet, drizzle on olive oil and whatever herbs you like, toss (not in trash!) to coat all and bake at 350 for abt an hour. Brocoli and Brussel sprouts are good the same way, but don't take as long to cook.

    Japanese Turnip Slaw

    3 cups shredded raw turnip roots
    1 cup shredded purple cabbage
    1 unpeeled apple, shredded

    Celery Seed Dressing
    1/2 cup powdered sugar
    4 tablespoons vinegar
    1 teaspoon celery seed
    Salt and white pepper to taste
    dash of paprika
    1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
    3/4 cup oil(probably canola since they didn't specify)

    in a sauce pan dissolve sugar in vinegar. Warm over low heat and add all of the remaining dressing items. Remove from heat and cool. Pour over slaw and refrigerate.

    The book is Fresh Ideas for Vegetable Cooking 
    By Georgia Machala Massie.
    Basically if you can grow it in a garden, she has several recipes for it. She has several cooked recipes for turnips also but she must agree with me about rutabagas because they aren't mentioned in any of the 355 pages.

    Turnips and rutabagas around here are used inside a pasty.  Pasty rhymes with nasty and not with hasty.  Pasties are the tassels strippers adhere to their boobs.  A pasty is a savory meat hand pie and they are delicious, not nasty.
