This winter I bought a share in one of the farms I like at the local farm market. Today was my first share pickup. I had to go online to research when I received, but I got about 20 pounds of veggies. Beets, Carrots, onions, potatoes, rutabegas, parsnips, leeks, arugula, and a little pumpkin. So far, so good. Now what to do with a rutabega? I have never cooked with a rutabega in my life.

How cool is that
Rutabega is excellent in pasties and stews. Hard to cut tho

the only recipes so far tend to just mash them!
Rutabaga = turnip.
No difference at all.

My english friend loves rutabaga, I'll ask her for recipes. I believe they normally roast it in the oven or on the grill...
As for me, I know turnips are also tasty when eaten raw.

rutabaga is not equal to turnips, I bought turnips before, and they do not look like rutabagas.

Swede, (Yellow) turnip, Rutabaga
The rutabaga, swede (from Swedish turnip), or yellow turnip (Brassica napobrassica, or Brassica napus var. napobrassica) is a root vegetable that originated as a cross between the cabbage and the turnip. Its leaves can also be eaten as a leaf vegetable.
Rutabaga=turnip.
I have to educate Ann on this constantly. You guys both seem to have this blind spot where you can't see that I can always and constantly correct.
My mom makes 'em a lot on the holidays, but she bascially just mashes em up and puts butta on them.

Butta makes everything all right!
