When root vegetables are in season, take advantage of ingredients like turnips by combining them with other autumn favorites like fresh apples. I've added cider vinegar and orange blossom honey to bring even more flavor to this dish.

Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 medium turnips, mixed varieties, peeled
4 scallions, trimmed of dark green ends
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 apples, preferably Jonagold or Honey Crisp
1 tablespoon honey, preferably local orange blossom
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Quarter and slice the peeled turnips into ¼-inch slices. Place in a medium mixing bowl. Slice the scallions into 1" to 2" segments and add to the sliced turnips. Drizzle the melted butter over the turnip/scallion mixture. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Quarter, core, peel, and cut 1 of the apples into ¼-inch to ½-inch slices. Add to the turnip mixture. Toss gently to coat. Spread the turnip mixture onto a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper and place in the oven.
  • After 10 minutes, toss the mixture on the tray, to promote even browning and caramelization. Return the tray to the oven on the bottom rack for an additional 10-12 minutes.
  • Remove the tray from the oven. Drizzle the honey over the vegetables and return to the oven for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  • Remove the tray from the oven. Drizzle the apple cider vinegar over the warm vegetables. Toss gently to coat. Mound the turnips and apples on a wide platter, and shave the remaining apple over the warm vegetables. Serve immediately.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield about 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 stalks celery, stalks trimmed of leaves and ends, washed, dried and cut into 1/4-inch thick half moons
8 slices white sandwich bread
1 teaspoon dry rosemary
10 fresh sage leaves, stemmed and cut into thin strips
4 medium turnips, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch thick cubes
1 teaspoon ground allspice
3 medium yellow onions, peeled, halved and cut into thin slices
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground white pepper
1 pound loose pork breakfast sausage, broken into small pieces and cooked
1 cup low-sodium chicken stock, boiled and cooled
1 stick to 1 1/4 sticks (8 to 10 tablespoons) unsalted butter
4 medium Granny Smith apples, cored, peeled and cut into 8 to 10 even wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a large skillet, melt 1/4 stick (2 tablespoons) of the butter. Add the apple wedges and onions. Season with the sugar and salt and pepper to taste. Cook over medium heat until the apples and onions become slightly tender and yielding but still hold their shape, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the celery and cook to soften it slightly, about 2 additional minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the contents to a bowl. Set aside.
  • Arrange the bread slices in a single layer on a baking sheet and toast until light brown. Alternatively, brown them in a toaster. While the bread is still hot, lightly butter both sides of each piece. Cut into 1-inch squares and transfer them to a large bowl. Toss with the rosemary, sage and some salt and pepper. Mix to blend. Set aside.
  • Heat a large skillet and add 1 tablespoon of the butter. When it melts, stir in the turnip cubes and sprinkle with the allspice. Season with salt and cook over medium heat until tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Combine the apple, onion and celery mixture with the cooked breakfast sausage and turnips in the bowl containing the toasted bread. Mix to blend, and add the chicken stock to moisten all of the ingredients.
  • Place into a rectangular baking dish and bake until golden and cooked through, 45 to 50 minutes.

2 teaspoons cider vinegar

  • What to drink:
  • Lagier Meredith Mount Veeder Napa Valley Syrah '06

Tips:

  • Choose the right turnips: Look for small, firm turnips with smooth skin. Avoid turnips that are large, soft, or have blemishes.
  • Peel the turnips thinly: This will help to preserve the turnips' nutrients and flavor.
  • Cut the turnips into uniform pieces: This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the turnips: Turnips should be cooked until they are tender but still slightly firm. Overcooked turnips will be mushy and bland.
  • Use a variety of spices and herbs: Turnips pair well with a variety of spices and herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, sage, nutmeg, and cinnamon.
  • Serve turnips as a side dish or main course: Turnips can be served as a side dish with roasted chicken, pork, or beef. They can also be used as a main course in vegetarian and vegan dishes.

Conclusion:

Turnips are a versatile and delicious vegetable that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. They are a good source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Turnips can be roasted, mashed, fried, or added to soups and stews. They are also a good addition to salads and slaws. With their slightly sweet and earthy flavor, turnips are a great way to add flavor and nutrition to your meals.
