Ingredients

  • • 3 large For You® Turnips
  • • 6 large For You® Parsnips
  • • 2 T. light unsalted butter
  • • 2 T. chopped fresh thyme leaves, about 4 sprigs
  • • pinch of salt and ground black pepper

Instructions

This mash combines ForYou® parsnips and turnips for a side that’s slightly sweet, slightly peppery, and a much more interesting alternative to plain mashed potatoes. Whip them with butter and cream until fluffy, finish with fresh herbs, and serve hot. A vegetarian holiday-table contender.

  • 3 large For You® Turnips
  • 6 large For You® Parsnips
  • 2 T. light unsalted butter
  • 2 T. chopped fresh thyme leaves, about 4 sprigs

1. Peel and dice the turnips and parsnips.
2. Add veggies and salt to a large sauce pan and cover them with cold water.
3. Boil over medium heat for about 10 minutes, until veggies are quite soft. Vegetables are done when you can easily insert the tip of a knife into the cubes.
4. Drain the veggies and put them back into the saucepan.
5. Add the butter and thyme.
6. Using a potato masher, mash all ingredients together.
7. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm.

Miedema Produce Team & History

MIEDEMA PRODUCE

Our Humble Beginning

Miedema Produce began in 1971 when brothers Gerald and Ron Miedema raised their first crops in Jenison, Michigan. The duo learned from their father, Ted, who had farmed in the Netherlands, immigrated to the United States, and used his vegetable growing expertise to make his start in the United States.

Miedema Produce began growing bright and crisp radishes, which is now our hallmark product being grown and produced today. Miedema Produce has since become one of the largest growers and shippers of radishes in the world.
