Rutabaga Soup image

Rutabagas, yellow turnips, Swedes, whatever you call them, don't turn up your nose until you've tried them. They're sweet and earthy and wonderful, as is this soup. It's thickened with rice and is so much better on day two that I've written the recipe to include that direction. This soup almost demands a great loaf of bread to go with it and I encourage you to not omit the tarragon garnish. I think it makes the soup. Adapted from Rozanne Gold, a favorite cookbook author. Cook time includes overnight refrigeration.

This is a great recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. It's also very affordable to make. I like to serve it with a side of salad.

I'm not a big fan of rutabagas, but I actually really enjoyed this soup. The flavors were well-balanced and the soup was very creamy. I would definitely make it again.

This soup is delicious! The rutabaga gives it a unique and slightly sweet flavor. I also love the addition of bacon and onions. It's a great soup for a cold winter day.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out watery and flavorless. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning. I also found the rutabaga to be a bit too sweet.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover rutabagas. It's also very affordable to make. I like to serve it with a side of crusty bread.

Easy to make and very tasty. I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth, and it was still delicious. The soup was a hit with my family, and I'll definitely be making it again.

This rutabaga soup was an absolute delight! The flavors were incredibly well-balanced, with the sweetness of the rutabaga playing perfectly off the savory notes of the bacon and onions. I added a touch of extra garlic and black pepper, and it really
