Beer Braised Turnips Recipes

Steps:

• Add the butter to a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the turnips to the pan and cook until slightly browned and just tender, about 10 minutes. Add the greens and stock, and simmer until the turnips are cooked through and greens are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and season with salt and pepper to serve.

Steps:

• Place the turkey wings in a 3-quart saucepan and add enough water to just cover them, about 5 cups. Bring to a boil, skimming off any foam that forms on the surface. Reduce to a simmer and let cook, uncovered, 1 1/2 hours. Strain the wings and remove the meat from the bones and set aside; discard the bones. Reserve 1 1/2 cups of the broth; save the remaining broth for another use.
• Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the onion and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and red pepper and cook 1 minute more. Add turnip greens in batches, allowing each batch to wilt and stirring to distribute before adding the next batch.
• Once all the greens are added, stir in the vinegar, brown sugar, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Return the turkey to the pot along with the reserved broth. Reduce the heat to low, cover and let simmer until the greens are very tender, about 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Rub the lamb with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Preheat a 14-inch cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned lamb and sear for 5 minutes. Transfer the pan to the oven and roast until browned, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Once heated, add the leeks and onions and cook until they begin to become tender, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
• After 30 minutes, remove one of the lamb shoulders from the oven and set aside. Add half of the turnips to the pan and return to the oven. Allow to continue roasting until everything is cooked through, about another 30 minutes.
• Add the other lamb shoulder to a stovetop pressure cooker along with the cooked leeks, onions, beer and remaining turnips. Secure the pressure cooker lid and follow the manufacturer's instructions to bring to high pressure over medium heat. Pressure cook for 20 minutes. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to carefully quick-release the steam and unlock the lid. Add everything in the pressure cooker to a large pan or shallow dish and stir, breaking up the lamb. Add to a platter. Add the roasted lamb and turnips to the same platter and serve.

Steps:

• Put the turnips, beet and garlic into a wide-mouth, heatproof 1-quart jar.
• In a small saucepan, bring the vinegar, salt, sugar and 1 1/2 cups of water to a boil. When the salt and sugar are fully dissolved, pour the brine over the vegetables to fill the jar. Leave to cool. When completely cool, cover the jar and chill for 1 week.

Steps:

• Season the veal with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet and sear the veal shanks over high heat on all sides until well browned, about 10 minutes. Remove the browned veal shanks from the skillet and place them in an ovenproof casserole. To the same skillet in which you browned the veal, add the diced vegetables, along with the whole garlic cloves, and saute them for 3 to 4 minutes.
• When the vegetables have begun to cook and wilt, add the tomato paste and combine thoroughly. Be careful not to burn the tomato paste. Add the white wine and the chicken or veal stock and bring to a boil. Carefully pour the vegetable liquid mixture over the veal shanks in the casserole and braise covered in a preheated 350 degree oven for 1 hour and 45 minutes. The veal should be fork tender, with the meat just beginning to separate from the bone when you remove them from the oven. Cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Bring greens, ham hock, water, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a boil in a large heavy pot. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until greens are almost tender, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, peel apples and cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Add turnips and apples to greens with vinegar, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper and cook at a bare simmer, covered, stirring and turning ham hock occasionally, until turnips and apples are tender but not falling apart, about 20 minutes more. Remove from heat and stir in butter and salt to taste.
• Remove ham hock and finely chop any tender meat, discarding skin, bone, and tough meat. Add chopped meat to pot.

Steps:

• Peel vegetables, or not; quarter turnips if necessary to make them about same size as radishes. Put in saucepan with pinch of salt, butter or oil, and water to come up about halfway to their height. Cover and turn heat to medium-high.
• Simmer until vegetables are just about tender, 10 to 20 minutes. Uncover and continue to cook until vegetables are shiny and glazed with their juices. Add more salt if necessary and serve hot.
