Salad Turnip Salad
Recipe type: Appetizer
Cuisine: American
 

For this delightfully simple salad, having access to a mandolin helps a lot, but a very sharp knife works just as well. The goal is to slice these salad turnips super-thin.
Ingredients
  • 2 bunches salad turnips (8-10 turnips)
  • 1 – 2 tsp. lemon juice
  • Driftless sunflower oil for drizzling
  • Salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
  1. Trim stem end and any scraggly roots off the turnips.
  2. If they came with greens attached reserve those for another use.
  3. Scrub turnips clean.
  4. Slice turnips very thinly.
  5. Put sliced turnips in a medium bowl and toss with the lemon juice.
  6. Divide turnips evenly between 4 to 6 salad plates.
  7. Drizzle with sunflower oil, and sprinkle with salt.
  8. Top with a dusting of freshly ground black pepper.
