TURNIP SLAW

Turnip Slaw image

I found this recipe in a local newspaper when we moved to Arkansas almost 20 years ago. The recipe was said to be so good that even people "burned out" on turnips would like it. I'd never heard of slaw made from turnips, but I tried it and now my husband likes it better than cabbage slaw.

KOHLRABI-AND-TURNIP SLAW

Kohlrabi-and-Turnip Slaw image

These two cabbage cousins offer an interesting twist on the traditional coleslaw. Kohlrabi makes a great addition to stir-fries, while turnips, when pureed with a little butter, serve as an excellent side dish. For the greens, saute them as you would kale or spinach.

PEASANT TURNIP SLAW WITH SWEET HOT MUSTARD DRESSING

Peasant Turnip Slaw With Sweet Hot Mustard Dressing image

I grow turnips for their delicious greens. But I get the roots as a by-product and need to find something to use them for. Not being too fond of cooked, mashed turnips, I'm playing with salad variations. This one is tangy and sweet with just a bit of bite from the sweet hot mustard. "Cooking" time is chilling time.

CABBAGE-TURNIP COLE SLAW WITH JALAPENO DRESSING

Cabbage-Turnip Cole Slaw With Jalapeno Dressing image

So I was browsing around and found some recipe for TURNIP COLE SLAW! Couldn't believe it... REALLY? TURNIP cole slaw? Let just say I wasn't really convinced. until one day I found myself with a head of green cabbage and two large purple top turnips that I didn't know what to do with since Boyfriend doesn't like them. I remembered the Turnip Cole Slaw. Now, I don't like cole slaw, and Boyfriend doesn't like turnips. I just happen to love turnips, and he loves cole slaw. So I threw this together, and he actually asked for more! I told him there were turnips in it and he said "Really?! its GOOD!" I served with oven fried chicken and biscuits, but I think it would be great on/or accompanying a BBQ pulled pork sandwich!
