Buttered Turnip Puree

Total Time: 35 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 4
  • 3 large turnips, peeled and cut into uniform chunks
  • 1 quart milk
  • 3 fresh thyme sprigs
  • 1 garlic clove, peeled and gently smashed with the side of a knife
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
  • kosher salt
  • fresh ground black pepper

Recipe

  • 1 combine the turnips, milk, thyme and garlic in a medium saucepan. set over medium heat and partially cover the pan. bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 20 to 30 minutes, until the turnips are tender-the tip of a paring knife should go through without resistance.
  • 2 drain the turnips, reserving the cooking liquid, and transfer to a food processor (discard the thyme sprigs). add about 1 cup of the reserved cooking liquid and the butter, season with plenty of salt and pepper and puree until smooth. add more of the liquid, if necessary. serve hot.
