French-Glazed Turnips
A popular French technique for vegetables is to cook them with a small amount of fat and a sprinkling of sugar and salt. The result is the barest hint of glaze on the vegetables. Here we’ve added a touch of nutmeg for a different flavor combination.
6 servings (serving size: 1/2 cup)
2 pounds turnips, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 1/4 cup water, divided
1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Preparation
Prep: 8 Minutes
Cook: 32 Minutes
Place turnips in a single layer in a large skillet. Add 1 cup water; dot turnips with butter. Sprinkle with sugar, salt, and nutmeg. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 12 minutes. Uncover and simmer 10 minutes or until liquid evaporates. Cook, stirring occasionally, 6 to 8 minutes or until turnips are very lightly browned. Stir in remaining 1/4 cup water, parsley, and pepper.
Market News
Hello!
What a beautiful day it has been! It is so nice to see the sun and feel the warmth of the sun after such a winter!
We are still experience a lot of MUD in the fields, which is really delaying spring planting. The greenhouse is full of plants ready to get in the ground, but there is no place to put them until the dirt dries out enough to get in there with the tractor. The onions, potatoes, cabbages and other cole crops really depend on a cool spring for development, so we’ll see how it goes! Every year is different!
Now is the time to think flowers! The pre-paid bouquets are available, meaning current customers have the opportunity to save $20 if they pre-pay now for 10 large flower bouquets that will be available over the course of the summer. You are not obligated to get a bouquet every week – just when it suits you. The flower bouquets are available usually about 20 weeks, so you will have plenty of opportunities to order one. PLease email Tally if you have any questions!
We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday!
John and Tallahassee
