I have some radishes growing this year, but they've been slow to get full sized. I buy some now and then, agree they're good. I just like to chomp them with salt.
Turnips on the other hand, what does one even cook with them? Soups maybe? Drawing a blank.
Roast them with lots of butter and good salt. 🤤
Soups are a good place for them, too. I'd sautee them before building the body of your soup, though.
Mashed with garlic and butter plus a little sour cream topped with some green onion is tasty. I do prefer rutabagas to turnips tho.
turnips and stew.
i've had them a la jamie oliver style (cook was a huge fan of the book at teh time) he did them pretty nice in a frypan iirc. they taste pretty bland but have an ok texture.a bit like sweet potato without the sweet and a little more fibres.
Yeah, discussing them at home and it's mainly a soup ingredient here so far. I wanna try what David suggested:
"Mashed with garlic and butter plus a little sour cream topped with some green onion"
As an alternative to mash potatoes
yeah, that lines up with my experience. they are a bit like potato, but more like sweet potato, but not really sweet, more dry, would go nice exactly how you describe, the cream would help a lot with how it goes down.
