When making some period turnip dish in my very first feast, the quite
tasty Turnips in Butter and Mustard Sauce, from ''Le Cuisinier
francois'' by Francois Pierre called la Varenne, French, 1651 (thanks
to Anne Marie), I cooked them until just tender in water, pitched the
water, sliced them, then simmered them in milk for about 15 minutes,
to remove their bitterness.
