How to Pick

When selecting turnips, look for ones that are firm and have a smooth skin, as this indicates freshness. 

Avoid turnips with soft spots or blemishes, as they may be starting to spoil. Additionally, smaller turnips tend to be sweeter and more tender, so consider the size based on your preferences. Overall, choose turnips that are vibrant in color and free of any visible damage.

How to Store

Turnips should be stored in a cool, dark place such as a root cellar or the vegetable compartment of the refrigerator. Keep them in a perforated plastic bag to maintain humidity and prevent them from drying out. 

Avoid storing turnips near fruits like apples or pears, as they release ethylene gas which can cause turnips to become bitter. Proper storage will ensure the turnips stay fresh and flavorful for longer.
