Turnip and Greens

I wash, separate, and refrigerate the turnips the night before. To separate; is I put the roots in a plastic bag, stems in a separate bag, and finally the green leaves in another bag. I cook fresh turnips in layers. First the stems, then the greens adding the roots last. The stems are the longest cook time. When you wash the turnips you might want to consider wearing cooking gloves, for the greens have thorns, on the backside of the leaves.

Beef and Greens Beef and Greens
Not difficult, great flavor, pretty quick.Found some Rapini at the store, not something I see around here, so I bought a bunch. Any greens should work with this, collard, mustard, etc. Found a few recipes I sort of combined and modified to come up with this one. And it is very good. I suggest you serve over rice, but other ways would work, noodles, mashed potatoes even polenta. Fo Fa -
