    I only eat them raw in salads. I much prefer rutabaga. They take a long time to cook. Boil them and when soft, mash them. Boil a couple potatoes and mash those too. Then mash them together. Add a little butter and salt and it is delicious as a side dish. This is actually a Swedish dish called Rutamoose, although I don't know if that is the right way to spell it.

    They go well with parsnips too.

    Another one you should try is Jicama


    Jicama is delicious! I had it for the first time in Texas. I heard it described as a cross between a potato and a pear - and although that sounds weird, I think it's true.

    My friend says her family cuts up jicama and serves it with lime and chili powder. I haven't tried it that way but it sounds yummy and healthy.
