Purple Top White Globe Turnip
Purple Top White Globe is the classic American turnip — a beautiful, round root with distinctive purple shoulders above the soil line fading to smooth white below, with crisp, peppery-sweet flesh that is one of the most versatile root vegetables in the kitchen. Young, small turnips are tender enough to eat raw, sliced thin into salads; mature ones are excellent roasted, mashed with butter, braised in broth, or simmered into soups and stews. The greens are equally delicious and nutritious, especially when young and tender.
