Notes

  • Use the greens in a soup for a zero waste and sustainable kitchen.
  • If you use a kitchen machine to shred your turnips, it will take only 15 minutes max. If you intend to shred your turnips by hand, be aware that this might take 30 minutes and that it might get tiring. Use a kitchen machine as seen in the shredded carrot salad.
