Anybody grown any of this? If so whats it like and what sort of other foods do you have with it?

It's like a well flavoured turnip. Peppery. Use in any veg pot or dish you like, much like any root.

Love it on salads, always grow loads me self, fresh its is really juicy, crunchy and as gobs says good flavour. pretty easy to grow as well.

Much better than any nonsense of turnips, swedes, I've ever grown before.

I grew them once or twice before, and they certainly grew better than any swede I've ever tried. Tastewise, can't honestly remember.
Reminds me I must try and grow them again this year, just need to go on the hunt for a packet of seeds.

I love these just on their own, great for starters. Don't let them get big,
just peel then slice or cube and have with mayonnaise. Absolutely
delicious!
