KABU - Japanese Turnips for Sat. 11/01/08

Japanese Turnips are also called Kabu in Japan, where they are preared in the same way radishes are in the US. In Japan they can be served pickled, steamed, added to stir-fries, or grated raw into salad. The greens can be stir-fried, or added to soup.

Here is a salad recipe that I found at

Salad greens dressed in vinaigrette
Japanese turnip, skins on, ends trimmed, cut into batons or diced
Apple, quartered, cored and diced
Candied nuts - I'll probably just add a few nuts that I've toasted in the oven.
