Rutabaga Puree image

A cross between a turnip and a wild cabbage, rutabaga has a distinctly sharp taste. This puree calls for a touch of mascarpone, which mellows the root vegetable's bold flavor. If making the semifreddo, buy a small container of mascarpone and save the rest for dessert.

This puree was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sugar.

The puree was a bit too thick for my liking. I had to add some extra milk to thin it out.

This puree was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used a bit more salt and pepper, or maybe some herbs or spices.

This rutabaga puree was a hit! The sweetness of the rutabagas really shone through, and the addition of the nutmeg and cinnamon gave it a warm, comforting flavor. I served it as a side dish with roasted chicken, and it was the perfect accompaniment.
