Turnips in mustard sauce
Today I made turnips in mustard sauce from How to cook everything. My first reaction is: edible. We didn't eat turnips in my home growing up, so I'm not quite sure what they are supposed to taste like, and there was an oddish, slightly bitter taste to them. The mustard sauce was good, but it was strong enough that I'm not sure that I was actually tasting the turnips. I look forward to eating them again over the next few days and see how my palette reinterprets them. The caloric ingredients:
Turnips 2 lbs 3 oz | 280 |
Grey Poupon mustard 3 tbsp | 45 |
Corn starch 2 tsp | 20 |
Olive oil 1 tbsp | 120 |
Total: | 465 |
Dividing the recipe into four servings brings us to about 116 calories per serving, which is entirely reasonable for a side dish.
