Mamaw Joy shows us how to make turnips that taste amazing!!

[@rogereverett4467]

Thank you so much. I’ll be 60 this year and this is the first time I have ever grown turnips. I’ve harvested a few and I will try this way. It seems almost like how my parents would make them long ago.

[@jesstatz8695]

Thanks - I always wanted to know how to get the bitterness out. Another suggestion was to add a little sugar, but I don’t like sweet vegetables.

[@robingilley285]

I am sorry you lost your friend. I fixed turnips the way you did and they were so good. I will fix them again. The last 20 mins. I added baby carrots. So good I am going to check out more of your recipes.

Your my favorite cook thanks for the video

[@juliasokolovska9016]

Hi! Your video has inspired me to get some turnips for dinner today! Thank you for such a detailed description of the cooking process.

[@cookingwithmamawjoy631]

You are so welcome!

[@cheyanne919]

Thank You! I grew a bunch of Turnips, and I wasn't sure how you cook them. Cool to see that they make a potato substitute.

[@patriciakoester1580]

I absolutely love Turnips ♥️ I didn’t know about pouring the water off and adding water back & boil again with Salt, Pepper and Brown Sugar, I will certainly try that next time Yummy!!! Happy Thanksgiving Joy Patricia

It gets rid of any bitterness! Yes try it. 🥰

Did not know I liked turnips. And these were very good. Thank you.

[@cookingwithmamawjoy631]

Oh I’m so glad you tried them. Now you have a new dish to serve!!🥰

[@carolynjanegillis6591]

In our family we ate rutabagas, so I got curious about how to cook and eat turnips. Thanks for the double boiling trick!

[@Faith-in-him]

I just discovered your channel Mamaw Joy and I just want to say how much I enjoyed this content. A turnip at the Whole Foods store brought me to you. I’ve never had a turnip before and I’m in my mid 50s! lol!! I subscribed and liked this video. Looking forward to checking out the rest of your channel. The way you talk and cook reminds me of my late beloved grandmother. I miss her so much. 🕯️ 🥲 but I know I will see her again in Heaven. May God bless you and yours and this channel too! I’m sorry about your little friend. I admire your love and respect for nature. Bees and I don’t get along unfortunately. I was stung as a small child on my inner thigh while just standing there minding my own beeswax lol I think it may have been a wasp though. Now I just give them a wide berth. And I’m ok with that. I do know that honey bees are a very important part of our life cycle. There’s another word but it escapes me at the moment. So I’ll just go with life cycle. I’ve been doing that more and more lately. Darn menopause anyway! 🤭😏 Ecosystem!! I knew it would come to me! 🤭

[@cookingwithmamawjoy631]

You so much for subscribing to my channel and thank you so much for your kind comments and I hope I don’t disappoint you in anyway, but I have not felt well and sometimes not even felt like doing any videos, but I didn’t want to not have any to put on, so i’m hoping to do better to feel better and make some better videos soon, so please keep watching and thanks again. I appreciate it.🥰

[@cookingwithmamawjoy631]

Thank you for you comments!🥰

[@DBTdad]

7:32 tells how to take the bitterness out by pouring off the first water after boiling and adding brown sugar after second boiling. Then butter, salt, black or red pepper to taste.

[@DinainOH]

Would have been helpful for her to show this step. I kept feeling like I missed something.

[@peacealways8788]

Yummy 😋 Love this recipe ❤ Thank you 😊

[@adrimcandrew-jj8qi]

Thank you so much for your information! I bought turnips on a whim because i love radish but i have not idea how to prepare them. You have a very sweet energy and dont feel too bad about the bee because nothing ever ends ❤ im sure he's around you in another form

Good!!🥰

[@lisasargent2841]

I love to eat raw sliced turnips, I also like them cooked. My grandparents had lots of veggies in their diet & I learned to really like them. I think most veggies are an acquired taste.

[@cookingwithmamawjoy631]

Me too.,

My Mom would say old apples were pithy so I know just what you mean dry and mealy. I just grew my first turnips too! Glad I found your channel.

My grandpa used to keep a bowl of sliced turnips with water in the fridge to snack on throughout the day. That and as a veg in veg soup is about the only way I eat turnips. I may have to try this method at least once :)

Very good description of the taste / between a cabbage and radish. My mom who’s gone, Are used to make turnips when I was a child. This brought back so many wonderful memories. We use to have them with mustard greens. Thank you for the tip on rinsing them in cold water after they cook and I did add a dash of meg which I really liked.!!! Thank you for this video .

Thanks for this. My husband came home with a huge bundle of turnips he bought from a guy selling to people at the gas station. But I've never made them before!

[@cookingwithmamawjoy631]

Your so welcome!

[@marymarysmarket3508]

Thomas Jefferson wrote that there was no stew (soup) that the addition of a medium turnip didn’t improve. I certainly agree. It mellows all other flavors. Very sublime taste addition. Also, turnips are excellent used in equal amounts sliced turnips to sliced potatoes for scalloped or au gratin potatoes. When I bring this to potluck dinners, there is not a morsel left. Literally.

[@gailwalton5779]

I use bacon drippings, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper and a little white sugar in mine.....it's been a good while since I have found any so may have to grown my own....thank you for reminding me..

It is wonderful with chicken broth, so it would be great with the vegetable broth. I cook mine with equal parts diced potatoes, seasoned with salt, pepper, and butter. You can't sit still and eat 'em 😊😊

I love turnips but don't mistake turnips for rutabaga which is big and orange and overcooks quite quickly tasting and smelling like rotten cabbage! My mother used turnips one year in the boiled dinner at St Patrick's Day instead of potatoes and my father and my cousin who hate turnips messed them up put some butter on them and ate them all and then they were told you just ate turnips!

[@cookingwithmamawjoy631]

Lol

[@Ginaramp]

You lost me with the nutmeg.

[@cookingwithmamawjoy631]

I didn’t put in very much and it does add to the taste without being very string. You might just like it.,
