I grew a turnip, How do I cook it?!

rudeness above!.!.!.anyways!! Good for you! I love turnips!. Have you ever tried to eat one raw!? They are very good, kinda tastes like a radish, but a little different!. If you want to cook it for sure, I would recommend roasting it!. Cut it up (1/2in or so cubes), spread on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper, cook in a 375degree oven until fork tender!. (45 min!?) During cooking, toss around with tongs to prevent burningWww@FoodAQ@Com
