So here’s my favourite recipe for succulent turnip soup.
Take 2 turnips and boil them in water for 3hrs.
Using a blender mash the turnips up.
Pour into a bowl & add lots of this, sit back and enjoy

At least we know what a turnip is, unlike the Scots.CliffEdge wrote:The brexit effect...
Turnip soup and mud huts for the proles. Back to the middle ages, the golden age of GB. You had it so good.
You missed out the vital last step to turn it into a really tasty meal....... flush the soup down the loo and order a take-awayredsturgeon wrote:So, you're looking for turnip soup in the supermarket and you can't find any? Well, maybe that's because turnips have been staging a protest against being boiled for three hours! They're just not having it anymore. So, I'm afraid you'll have to take matters into your own hands and make your own soup.
Here's a recipe that's guaranteed to make your taste buds do a happy dance. First, you'll need two turnips. Now, I know what you're thinking - "Two turnips? That's it?" But trust me, two turnips can make a world of difference when they're boiled for three hours.
Next, boil the turnips in water for three hours. Yes, three hours. That's longer than most movies these days. But don't worry, you can use the time to catch up on your favorite TV show or maybe even write a novel.
Once the turnips are tender enough to be mashed with a blender, go ahead and do that. Now, this is the fun part - pour the mashed turnips into a bowl and add lots of...well, add whatever you want! Some people like to add cream, or butter, or even bacon bits. I won't judge.
And there you have it - a succulent turnip soup that's sure to make you forget all about those elusive supermarket turnips. Just don't forget to give your blender a break after all that turnip-mashing. It's been through a lot.
