This root-to-stem turnip dish serves up a mild, sweet, earthy flavor
Japanese turnips are a common find at farmers’ markets. They’re small, round and white, and look a little bit like radishes. They have a mild, sweet and earthy turnip flavor and are usually sold with the green attached, which we use in this root-to-stem recipe.
