[Sca-cooks] Cooking Turnips

When cooking turnips it's very important to bring them to a boil and
then discard the water, bring them to a boil again in clean water,
discard the water, and then boil them yet again in clean water.  This
cuts the bitter acrid taste that makes most people dislike turnips.
 They still won't taste like mashed potatoes (certainly not like our
modern Russet potatoes) but it will make them much more acceptable to
the modern palate.
