Root Vegetables: What's the Difference? Parsnips In America, they are
eaten as a winter vegetable. Rutabagas This cabbage family vegetable can
be used interchangeably with the turnip, although the rutabaga's flesh is
pale orange as compared to the creamy white flesh of the turnip. It can be
peeled and roasted with meat, cooked with soups, added to casseroles or
mashed. Turnips Sweet when young, turnips take on a coarser texture and
taste as they age. Peel the large ones before cooking.
