BETTER RUTABAGAS (WITH CHEESE)



Better Rutabagas (With Cheese) image

I received rutabagas in my CSA box this week. I'd never had them before, but a friend told me I could cook them like mashed potatoes. So I peeled, boiled, and mashed them with butter, salt, and pepper. And took a taste... I was pleased to find they tasted a bit like smashed cauliflower, with a similar texture. And they hinted that what they really needed was onion and cheese. Here's how I made them:

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 -3 medium rutabagas, peeled and cut in 1-inch pieced

Steps:

  • Boil the rutabagas in water until tender. Drain and mash.
  • Add other ingredients, reserving 1 tablespoon cheese (use more or less cheese depending on how large your roots are, how well you like cheese, and how well you like rutabaga!) and combine thoroughly.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups boiling water
1 cup raw cashews
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
2 slices rustic bread, torn into small pieces
2 small rutabagas (1 1/2 pounds), peeled and cut into about 1/8-inch-thick slices
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
4 teaspoons chopped fresh marjoram
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Make cashew cream: In a medium bowl, pour boiling water over cashews and let sit until they soften, at least 15 minutes and up to 30. Stir in yeast. Puree mixture in a blender on highest setting until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes. Seasonwith salt to taste. Set aside.
  • Make breadcrumbs: Pulse bread in a food processor until coarsely ground. Set aside. (You should have 1 cup.)
  • Assemble gratin: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cover bottom of an 8-inch-round baking dish with a single layer of rutabaga slices, overlapping edges and working in a circle. Season with salt, pepper, andsome of the chopped herbs. Add another layer and season with salt, pepper, and herbs. Pour in about 1/3 of cashew cream -- enough to cover both layers. Continue until baking dish is full. Pour in remainingcashew cream. Sprinkle nutmeg over top layer. Toss breadcrumbs with oil in a small bowl. Top gratin with breadcrumbs.
  • Bake on a rimmed baking sheet until rutabagas are tender when pierced with a sharp knife and breadcrumbs are golden brown, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
