my dad insisted on turnip water to make the gravy… felt it added just the right flavour… so I cook turnips for every holiday meal, lol… and I’ve also passed along the need for this important ingredient to others;-)…

of course when I ordered the turnip I got two good sized ones, lol…

happily I was able to give one to a friend…

I peeled and cut up the other one and after boiling it, saved the water for gravy, and mashed it up…

had a bowlful and put some away to go with Sunday’s dinner;-)…
