Turnip Puree With Orange And Nutmeg Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the turnips, milk, thyme and garlic in a medium saucepan. Set over medium heat and partially cover the pan. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 20 to 30 minutes, until the turnips are tender-the tip of a paring knife should go through without resistance.
• Drain the turnips, reserving the cooking liquid, and transfer to a food processor (discard the thyme sprigs). Add about 1 cup of the reserved cooking liquid and the butter, season with plenty of salt and pepper and puree until smooth. Add more of the liquid, if necessary. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Halve the turnips if they are small or quarter them if they are large. Place them in a kettle and cover with cold, unsalted water. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer until they are very tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and pass them through a ricer.
• Place the riced turnips in a large saucepan set over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until some of the liquid has evaporated and they are the consistency of mashed potatoes, about 20 minutes. Stir in the cream, butter, orange juice, orange zest and nutmeg and cook, stirring for 3 to 4 more minutes. Remove from the heat, season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Heat butter & oil in saucepan & cook shallot gently, stirring occasionally, until soft but not colored, about 3 minutes.
• Add turnips to shallot & continue heating.
• Shake pan frequently until turnips start to absorb butter & oil, about 7 minutes.
• Pour orange juice onto turnips, then simmer gently for about 30 minutes, until turnips are tender & OJ is reduced to a buttery sauce.
• Season with salt & pepper, if required.
• Serve hot, garnished with thin slivers of orange zest.

Steps:

• Add turnips, milk, thyme and garlic to a medium-sized sauce pot. Set over medium heat and place the lid over the pot so it is just covering. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 20 to 30 minutes until tender - the tip of a paring knife should go through without resistance.
• Remove the thyme and remove 2 cups of the liquid. Drain and place turnips back into the same pan and blend using an immersion blender or place to a food processor. Add butter and about 1 cup of the milk cooking liquid and blend. Season with salt and pepper and puree until smooth. Add more of the milk if necessary.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Toss turnips and butter in 13 x 9 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Sprinkle turnips with salt and pepper. Cover dish with foil. Bake until tender, about 1 hour. Remove from oven and mash coarsely. Stir in nutmeg. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Cook turnips and garlic in large pot of boiling salted water until turnips are very tender, about 30 minutes. Drain. Return turnips and garlic to pot; stir over medium-high heat until dry, about 2 minutes. Working in batches, puree turnips, garlic, 1 1/2 cups cream, and butter in processor until smooth. Return puree to pot. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add more cream if necessary to reach desired consistency. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Heat olive oil in heavy medium skillet over medium-low heat. Add anchovies and cook, mashing with back of wooden spoon until dissolved, about 1 minute. Add walnuts and cook until slightly crisp, about 5 minutes. Stir in parsley. Rewarm turnip puree over medium heat, stirring frequently. Transfer to serving bowl. Spoon walnut mixture over.

Steps:

• Steam the turnips for 20 to 40 minutes, depending on age and size, until tender.
• Steam the pears until they are soft, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, saute the shallots in the butter until translucent.
• Either in a food processor, using the steel blade, or in a blender, puree the turnips, pears and shallots with the Gorgonzola, in batches, until all of it is pureed. Season with nutmeg, salt and pepper.
• At this point the dish may be refrigerated. To serve, spoon puree, which is quite liquid at this point, into a large skillet. Cook at a simmer, to thicken the mixture and evaporate the liquid, for about 30 minutes.
