I like to serve turnips occasionally because most people don't eat a lot of them. Finding standalone turnip recipes, however, can be a bit difficult. We tried this one because of the unusual ingredients and liked it. I won't say it's the most wonderful dish but it's decent and it's different. I would be careful, however, to pair it with other dishes that the turnips can compliment because the seeds, paprika and vinegar do impart a distinct flavor. I think they would go well with grilled fish or other grilled meats that are fixed relatively simply with very few seasonings. Also I would use smaller, younger turnips rather than ones that are older, larger, and more bitter/hot.

This was delicious! I ran out of red wine vinegar and used rice vinegar and it still turned out so delicious. I highly recommend this recipe.

These turnips were literally the first I've tried in my 34 years on this planet! Boy, was Mario point-on with the red wine vinegar! As it reduced, and the butter also soaked into the turnips, they slowly started to caramelize and get sweeter and had much more flavor. Wow, with a little bit of crunch left, I could taste the buttery goodness of the turnips while enjoying a slight zip from the vinegar--a perfect combination! Thanks, Mario! Even my daughter ate them!

This recipe is now my secret weapon. We grow turnips in our garden and were looking for something new to do with them, and here it is. This recipe is simple and the results are delicious. I have served these to dinner guests three times and each guest has commented they never enjoyed turnips much before, but love these. Thanks Mario!

This was the worst tasting thing I have had in a long time. What a waste of some good homegrown turnips.

This was actually my first time cooking turnips, and this recipe is very tasty. The seeds are toasty and nutty, and the color of the paprika is beautiful. At the first bite, I didn't know what to expect, but the taste really grew on me quickly. I will definitely make this again.
