STORAGE TIPS
Store in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to three weeks.
CULINARY TIPS
Prepare by using a pairing knife or vegetable peeler to remove the outer layer. Cut off very bottom so that you will have a flat surface for chopping. Use large chef's knife to halve then quarter your rutabaga. Boiling or mashing makes a great side dish!
