ingredients

1 large rutabaga, peeled and cubed into very small pieces

directions

In Dutch oven, cover rutabaga pieces with water to cover, plus about 2 inches over. Bring to boil, then cut heat to keep at a simmer until rutabaga pieces are tender. Using slotted spoon, remove rutabaga pieces and set aside. Set the rutabaga water aside to save.

The rutabaga pieces can be mashed to serve as a vegetable with a meal (add salt, herbs and/or butter to your liking).

cook's notes

The water the rutabaga was cooked in is rather flavorful. Use it as the liquid to add to your pan scrapings for making gravy. Freeze in 1-cup containers for future use. This water is also good added to homemade soup. Another reason to keep a frozen supply on hand.
