What do you do with them? How do you prepare them? Do you try to preserve them? If so, in what way???

I had planted just a few this spring to try it out and yesterday I harvested them, but not sure what to do with them now that I have them. Since this bunch is only a few, enough for about one meal I guess, I am thinking of boiling them till soft, then maybe do a cream sauce poured over, maybe include some bacon with it.....IDK, whadyall think?

I LOVE TURNIPS!!!!! I cannot get them to grow.

I peel then dice into 1" and then simmer until soft. Add butter and salt. YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

About the only time I ever remember having turnips was when my Dad would make stew with turnips and rutabagas and I KNOW I don't like rutabagas, but turnips were good, but that was like 60 years ago too. This was my first time attempting to grow them and with our cool temps, they may now grow for you up here.

Butter, salt & pepper work for me. Keep it simple at first, then experiment later, thanks

Keep it really simple. I prefer them pulled young and small and raw!
