Vegetable Purée

My relationship with rutabaga is absolutely terrible and hostile. Either I haven’t cracked the code yet or it might just have to fall under ‘may try’.

I’ve tried substituting rutabaga for potatoes in a mash - It turned out pretty descent with all the butter and seasoning but was honestly too much effort in my opinion. However, a combination of rutabaga and other vegetables in a purée is a solid fallback plan that I won’t even try to gate keep. It could simply be rutabaga and carrot purée or you could experiment with all of your favorite vegetables. The key is getting the seasoning perfect at all cost and you’ll enjoy a good plate of food.
