Notes
- How to Cut Rutabagas: (See step by step photos in the "How to Make it" section of the post).
- With a sharp knife, slice off the root and stem ends, and slice the rutabaga in half. Slice each half into one inch half moon slices.
- Use a paring knife to peel away the waxy skin. (Much easier than using a vegetable peeler).
- Slice each half moon into one inch strips.
- Slice the strips into one inch cubes and you're done!
- Make sure to have a sturdy, sharp knife (like a chef's knife) and a stable cutting board.
- When slicing, try to keep the cubes as uniform in size as possible to ensure even cooking. (But don't worry if they are aren't exact).
- Store leftover roasted rutabaga in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- To reheat, spread the cubes on a baking sheet and heat in a 400° oven for 5-10 minutes.
- To freeze the oven roasted rutabaga, first flash freeze the cubes by spreading them on a tray. Put the tray in the freezer for 20-30 minutes. Then the cubes can be packed into a freezer bag or container. Freeze for up to 3 months. For even longer freezer storage, I like to use a vacuum sealing system for freezing food.
- To make this recipe in an air fryer, put the rutabaga cubes in a single layer in the air fryer basket for 15-20 minutes at 400°.
