• Chop the herbs bring a cup and a half of heavy cream with the herbs, chopped garlic and salt and pepper to a boil, then let simmer for about 4 minutes.
• Pour a little bit of the cream in the casserole dish, just to cover the bottom. make a layer of rutabaga/turnip, add grated Gruyere and Parmesan. pour some more of the heavy cream mix, add another layer of rutabaga/turnips and cheese and so on and so forth until you are running out of rutabaga/turnips. the final layer should just be the veggies with the grated cheese liberally on top. i sprinkled each layer with salt and pepper as i was putting it together.
• bake for 40-45 minutes, until the top layer is golden brown and crispy and you know, it just *looks* don.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Combine the cream, milk, mustard, cayenne, nutmeg, a generous amount of salt and the turnips and rutabaga in a large bowl. Mix well. Transfer the vegetable mixture to a large pot over medium heat and simmer gently, stirring occasionally to assure the mixture is not sticking to the bottom, until the vegetables give up water and become tender, for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and taste for seasoning.
• Make the topping: Mash 2 tablespoons butter in a small bowl. Add the panko, almonds and 1/2 cup Parmesan and stir to combine. Set aside.
• Add the pears to the turnip mixture. Grease the bottom and sides of a 3-quart gratin dish with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Spread the minced garlic on the bottom of the dish with the back of a spoon. Arrange half of the turnip mixture and cream evenly in the bottom of the gratin dish, pressing down to flatten the mixture. Top with the Gruyere and remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan. Arrange the remaining turnip mixture evenly on top. Pour any leftover cream over the gratin. Cover the dish with a sheet of foil, crimping the edges, and place on a baking sheet so that no excess liquid will leak onto the floor of your oven and burn.
• Place in the center of the oven and bake for 1 hour. Carefully remove from the oven, take off the foil and return to the oven to cook until completely tender when pierced with the tip of a small knife, 45 minutes to 1 hour more.
• Top the gratin with the panko-cheese mixture and bake until golden brown, about another 15 minutes. Remove and cool at least 30 minutes but no longer than 1 hour before serving.
