Don’t “turn up your nose”, turnips are way better than you think. This humble vegetable has a wallflower reputation, it’s at the party but it’s not dancing. So, how do you make a turnip dance? You add a little curry and garlic, pair it with a great partner like potato and next thing you know your taste buds are doing a cha-cha. Turnips are root vegetables, cousin to radish and arugula, they have a crisp texture when raw and a creamy texture when cooked. Raw turnip adds a savory, peppery bite to dishes that will soften to more of a savory, slightly sweet nibble when cooked. Turnips are teeming with taste! Our recipe for Turnip-Potato Mash brings together the earthy-sweet flavor of potato, the slight peppery flavor of turnip, and the deep savory & sweet spice of curry and garlic. Flavorful, delicious and colorful, Turnip-Potato Mash will dance across your tongue in Siberian Wallflower colored shoes!

Fun fact: Wallflowers, so named because they reseed freely and are prone to growing in wall crevices and pavement cracks, are a medicinal herb with vibrant blooms; Siberian Wallflowers often have warm yellow flowers similar to the color of this dish.
