Storage: store root and greens separately, they will store longer. Yes, you can eat the greens too! Maintain moisture
Best Uses: mild salad turnips are great raw in salads and slaws; sauté, stir-fry, pickle; peeling is optional on these tender turnips; greens cook quickly-don’t over cook, just wilt lightly and still bright green- packed with vitamins you can eat these raw too – not recommended for smoothies.
