Turnip Tips & Our Favorite Turnip Soup Recipes

Turnips. Do you eat them?

Are you like I used to be and wonder how to eat them?

You’ll want to peel them first, then enjoy them…

  • raw on salads
  • roasted
  • steamed
  • grilled
  • sautéed

Our favorite way is in this Turnip Potato Soup.

Evann, our 13 year old son, has been requesting this soup since we first made it ~ 10 years ago.

It is one off our go-to soups every fall & winter.

We also use the green tops in our “Pot Herb Soup“.

I use whatever greens I have available and this soup is amazing every time!

I have used kale, chard, cabbage, spinach, even bok choy. This week I used turnip greens and our Asian Greens mix.

It was so good!

Turnip Tips:

  • Store unwashed in a plastic bag in refrigerator for 1-2 weeks
  • Store greens seperately, wrapped in a damp towel or plastic bag in the hydrator drawer of the refrigerator. Use as soon as possible.
  • Turnip greens can often be substituted in recipes calling for chard, kale, or other leafy greens.
