This is from "The Frugal Gourmet Celebrates Christmas". I made the entire "Swedish Winter Feast" for a past Christmas and it was wonderful! I'll post the other recipes next. The whole meal is: Swedish Corned Pork Roast, Swedish Sauerkraut, Swedish Green Split Peas with Bacon, Mashed Rutabaga, Turnip, and Potato & Sweet and Hot Mustard, served with Rye Bread. I expected not to like anything and ended up LOVING everything!

SERVES 8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Place the rutabaga in a 6 quart pot with ample water and a pinch of salt. Boil for 15 minutes.
  2. 2
    Add the turnips and potatoes and boil 15 minutes more, until all the vegetables are tender.
  3. 3
    Drain well.
  4. 4
    Mash the vegetables with the remaining ingredients. (I do it right in the pot.) You can also use an immersion blender to puree them.

    One of my family's favorite root vegetables dishes. I make this often, just never knew there was a name for it. Made for ZWT4

    This is exactly how my aunt makes Rutmus. I think this may be a better version than the one I submitted. If you like mashed cauliflower you should try this too.

    I prepared 1/2 recipe, with no substition of any ingredients. I coarsely mashed the ingredients. The yellow pieces of rutabags were pretty mixed with the turnips and potatoes. This was good, but seemed to be missing something. The flavor was a bit bland, maybe the rutabaga or turnips were not flavorful themselves. I am glad I tried this and would try again if I could put my finger on why it tasted bland to me. Thanks Engrossed!
