How To Prepare Turnips

Answer 3

If they are the small, clear white Japanese turnips, like Toyko Cross, you can just rinse them well and nip off any spots. Using them for soup, though, is a waste, as they are considered of the "salad turnip" type, meaning absolutely fabulously sweet just raw (try them grated on salads!). If you are using the more traditional turnip, like Purple-top Globe, then do peel them and wash well. They work best for soups.

Answer 5

I would recommend cutting them in rounds and roasting them in the oven for 20 minutes, then frying them in a pan until black-brown. This will richen the flavor. Make sure they're pretty much cooked before you put them in the soup, unless you plan on cooking the soup for a long time, because they take a while to cook. They're not good if they're not fully cooked. They would be crunchy in the middle.

I take off the skin and use them in a stew with turnips, parsnips, potatoes, carrots and of course beef chunks.
