Rutabaga Casserole image

When Dick and I were first married he said the only food he wouldn't eat was a turnip. I hadn't eaten many turnips but my family were big rutabaga eaters. Our first Easter I made mashed rutabagas and he thought they were turnips and wasn't going to even try them. Now turnips have a white flesh and rutabagas have a yellow...

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 rutabagas (about 2 pounds) peeled and cubed
1/4 c butter, unsalted
2 Tbsp brown sugar, firmly packed
3/4 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 tsp allspice, ground
2 large eggs, separated
2 slice brown bread, processed into fine crumbs

Steps:

  • 1. Boil cubed rutabaga in a deep saucepan with water to cover for 30-40 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
  • 2. Drain well and transfer to a mixer bowl with 2 tablespoons of butter. Mash or whip electric mixer until smooth. Add brown sugar, salt, pepper and allspice.
  • 3. (Recipe may be prepared up to this point a day or two in advance and refrigerated.)
  • 4. Preheat oven to 350-degrees. Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form; set aside. Beat egg yolks for 3 minutes, or until light.
  • 5. Stir the egg yolks into the rutabaga mixture, then gently fold in the egg whites.
  • 6. Transfer to a greased 11"x9" oval gratin dish. Melt remaining butter and combine with the bread crumbs. Sprinkle over the top of the rutabaga. Bake for 1 hour, or until the top is a deep golden brown.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my casserole turned out dry and bland.

This casserole is a great make-ahead meal. You can assemble it the night before and bake it the next day.
