VARIETY:

Hakurei - salad turnip

Oasis - salad turnip

STORAGE:

Ideal temp: 35℉

We exclusively grow 'salad turnips'--these are not meant for long term storage, and are sweeter and crisper, like a mix between a turnip and a radish. They can be eaten raw or cooked, and are not as starchy as storage turnips.

Remove greens and place in a separate, sealed plastic bag for later use. The greens are delicious--my favorite cooking green! Store turnips in a sealed plastic bag in your fridge's crisper. Without plastic, the fridge will dehydrate the roots and make them soft. The condensation trapped in the plastic bag prevents this. Storage life: 21-40+ days.

USES:

Roasted at high heat
Sliced or chopped raw in salads
Raw in crudités with dip or dressing
Alongside roast chicken, pot roast or meatloaf
Steamed and mixed with butter and salt, or other seasonings
Mixed root roast (sweet potatoes, potatoes, parsnips, turnips, beets, fennel etc.)
Sautéed or glazed with soy sauce, ginger, fish sauce

PAIRS WELL WITH:

Butter, cream, cheese, roast chicken, beef, pork, root veggies, salad greens, apple, pear, onions, garlic, shallots, vinegar (rice wine, sherry, balsamic), mustard, fish sauce, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, honey, herbs
