    I made this dish for our Christmas dinner. I made two batches, one with turnips and one with potatoes. Both were a five star hit! My elderly aunt actually scraped the sides of the turnip dish! My husband's comment was that watching the food channel is "paying off!"

    You will LOVE turnips after eating this terrific dish. I would recommend not skimping on using the REAL parmegiano cheese, no canned stuff here please. The richness of the cream and butter coupled with the tang of the cheese make this one awesome side dish.

    This was spectacular! I can't imagine anyone not enjoying this - not even if you only tolerate turnips normally. However, if you didn't follow directions (i.e. didn't use a mandoline or you used cheap ingredients (parmesan from a green can I can imagine that the results would be less than perfect. This recipe became the star of last night's dinner, relegating the roast to side dish status!

    UPDATE: To make it even easier, after straining the cream, stir in the butter and parmigiano. Then, all you have to do is pour a third of the total mixture onto each of the three layers. I found this to be much less fussy and the result was identical.

    I can't agree with the multitude of 5 star reviews for this recipe. Ordinarily I like turnips; this is the first dish featuring turnips that I haven't liked. After the second bite, it was destined for the garbage can. My husband managed to eat the top layer with its crispy cheesiness. Overall, the flavor was very unpleasant. Sorry :(

    I just made this recipe for dinner and it was delicious! My family couldn't get over the great combination of flavors and kept asking me what was in it. Thanks, Anne!

    Used yukon golds the first time I made it, because I didn't have turnips. It's so good I haven't been able to try it with turnips yet because everyone demands that I make the potatoes all the time.

    I hate turnips! I did have to try this recipe any way. It just sounded good. It was delicious use turnips you can't even tell there are turnips in this recipe the turnips just add flavor where potatoes cannot. I led my husband to believe initially that these were potatoes and he couldn't tell. He loved them and so did I. Make it you won't believe it. I have to say I put more cheese and I used both pepper Jack and parm and I really think you could use whatever cheese you like. I was thinking even a sprinkle of Bleu cheese on top would be delicious........make it, its a winner. definitely a new Turkey day feel good recipe.

    The steeped sauce used in this recipe is a HIT! I have made the recipe three times, but have used it with russet potatoes instead of turnips each time. It is creamy and delicious! I always add a tablespoon of truffle butter to the mixture to add addittional flavor and it is heavenly! Slicing the potatoes on the mandolin ensures even cooking. I tend to double the sauce to make a portion size to serve 12 people with a leftover portion for me later!
