[QUOTE="stocky, post: 519750, member: 1150"] The purple top turnips are too strong for my taste, although my folks love them peeled, sliced, and boiled with a little meat rine. I really like the tokyo hybrid turnips, they are white and mild tasting, although the seed is much more expensive. I Iike to take one about the size of a baseball or a little bigger and cut off the tip and dip out a hole in the top and put butter in the hole and put it in the microwave and cook for about 4 minutes and then dip out the flesh with a spoone, leaving the bitter peeling. I usually scratch up a patch of ground and throw out the seed in the fall and they grow like crazy with no care. There are way too many for us to eat, so we just let anyone pick all they want. My best year, I gave away several hundred 5 gallon bucket fulls of turnips to people who wanted to pull them. Like sweet potatoes, they are considered a poor man's food because they are so cheap to grow and grow huge crops and the turnips have very little food value. [/QUOTE]
