Guest guest Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 He He! Swede is a kind of turnip, its yellow though rather than white. If you don't have turnips then it is kind of like a radish in shape and texture but much bigger and not hot, plus you eat it cooked not raw like a radish. and if you don't have turnips or radishes then there is simply nothing else in the vegetable world that I can compare it to!! Oh yes, beetroot but obviously not purple and its less sweet than that I think. sue w What is Swede? In a message dated 12/17/2006 3:16:48 A.M.
