what kind of vegetable is this? update: it was tasty

[Redfraggle]

Does your CSA not send out an email each week with a list of what's in it? How odd if not.

Anyway, as others said -- turnip or rutabaga.

Looks like a white turnip to me.

Pickle that turnip.

Jicama, or Turnip

 

[Iron Woode]

that's a turnip, not a rutabaga.

rutabagas are huge.

Turnip

jicama?

 

[Bryophyte]

You're not going to see a big stem like that on a jicama.

Raw jicama is mighty tasty, though.

Not all of them - but yes, they can be.

p.s. don't search for Giant Rutabagas on google - scary

Yes it is, but that definitely isn't one.

here's what it looked like when we cut it in half. my fiance made a gratin out of it with some zucchini that also came w/ the CSA, and we ate it with a whole bronzino fish. whatever it was, it was damn good and i'd eat it again!

Kohlrabi?

 

[Kaieye]

Kohlrabi is correct. I like to make soup with it because it has a sweet taste. But be careful cutting off the skin because the outer edges can be tough.

 

[FoBoT]

not Kohlrabi, wrong stem and they don't have the side stem thingys

 

[El Guaraguao]

Looks like concetrataded AIDS to me.

 

[TastesLikeChicken]

It's a yellow turnip.

Seems ATOT doesn't cook their own veggies very often.
