That is until one time I was visiting and took a big helping of what I thought was mashed potatoes but they were turnips. Boy, were my taste buds confused.Live and Learnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13493777474885053903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315851262843522940.post-15200241300226153242011-11-28T22:43:59.341-05:002011-11-28T22:43:59.341-05:00I loved your post.

When cooked we mashed them with potatoes and added butter and salt...I am now going to have to buy some when I go shopping and mash them with potatoes.<br /><br />I thought I hadn't eaten rutabaga until you mentioned they are sometimes called swedes.

So I guess I've eaten a lot of rutabaga :)Susan@Emperorphttp://emperorp.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315851262843522940.post-92099964661852272522011-11-20T21:53:32.957-05:002011-11-20T21:53:32.957-05:00If you find a turnip that has had just the right g...If you find a turnip that has had just the right growing season, it can't be beat--sweet with a mild peppery taste. (Sometimes they are bitter.) We usually just boil them with a little butter and salt. Theodore want to try roasting both turnips and rutabagas. We plan to do that soon.Live and Learnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13493777474885053903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315851262843522940.post-86557275073640845162011-11-20T19:59:37.470-05:002011-11-20T19:59:37.470-05:00I've been wanting to try to cook different roo...I've been wanting to try to cook different root vegetables, and I have yet to try rutabagas or turnips.
