Water to cover
2 medium rutabagas (about 2 pounds after peeling)
3 cooking apples
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter
1 Tablespoon maple syrup
Generous salt & pepper
Directions:
Bring water to boil in a large pot over medium high. Peel rutabagas, cut in a half-inch dice. Add to boiling water, let it return to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, cover and cook until soft, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, peel (don’t skip this step) and chop apples. Once rutabagas are soft, add apples and cook another 10 minutes. Drain and transfer to a food processor. Add butter and maple syrup, process until quite smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
