A traditional root vegetable with exceptional storage capacity. It is great roasted with a mix of vegetables and in soups or stews as well as eaten raw or mashed. A cross between a turnip and a cabbage, this vegetable has a beautifully butter and savory taste when roasted. They are high in vitamin C, a good source of potassium and high in fiber.

A perfect fall snack. Sweet and crunchy, eat a pear a day! 5-6 large pears.
