Zeldas Mashed Rutabagas With Brown Butter Recipes

EASY MASHED RUTABAGA

Steps:

• Place rutabaga in a medium pot and add enough chicken broth to cover. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, cover, and cook until tender, about 40 minutes.
• Transfer rutabaga to a colander and drain well. Place into a deep bowl; add evaporated milk and butter a little at a time until desired consistency is reached. Use an electric hand blender to get a creamy, non-fibrous texture. Season with salt and pepper.

MASHED RUTABAGA

Steps:

• Put the rutabaga in a large saucepan and cover by about 2 inches of water. Season the water generously with salt.
• Partially cover the pot and bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil the rutabaga for 40 minutes; rutabagas take a long time to bring out their natural sweetness. Add the potatoes to the pot and cook until the potatoes are fork tender, about 15 minutes.
• Heat the cream in a small saucepan over medium heat.
• Drain the rutabagas and potatoes from the water and pass through a food mill. Add half the hot cream and cold butter into the milled rutabaga/potato mixture and stir vigorously to combine. Repeat this with the remaining cream and butter. Taste to make sure the seasoning is correct.

BETTER RUTABAGAS (WITH CHEESE)

Steps:

• Boil the rutabagas in water until tender. Drain and mash.
• Add other ingredients, reserving 1 tablespoon cheese (use more or less cheese depending on how large your roots are, how well you like cheese, and how well you like rutabaga!) and combine thoroughly.
• Place in shallow baking dish, sprinkle with cheese, and bake at 350F until cheese on top is toasted.
