Notes
- What does rutabaga taste like? Rutabaga is known to taste like a cross between a turnip and cabbage all at once. It's slightly sweeter than turnip. Perfect for roasted swede.
- Do you need to peel rutabaga? It is best to peel rutabaga because the skin could get bitter when it is cooking. It is also where most of the impurities are and it sometimes is sold covered in a thin wax coating that must be removed.
- What’s the best way to cut rutabaga? The best way to cut rutabaga is by peeling it with a vegetable peeler and dicing it into ½ inch squares. You could also cut it into fries.
