5 medium turnips (about 2 lbs) 1.5 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil 1 Tablespoon butter 1 large onion, sliced 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste) 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper (or to taste) 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth Optional topping: 1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil 1/4 cup shredded carrot 2 Tablespoons thinly sliced scallion greens 2 teaspoons white-wine vinegar Soup: 1. Peel and thinly slice turnips. 2. Heat 1 Tablespoon olive oil and butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. 3. Add the turnips, rosemary, salt and white pepper. Stir to combine. Cover and cook, stirring once or twice, for 10 minutes. 4. Add broth, increase heat to high and bring to a boil.

Once turnips are tender, puree the soup until smooth in the pan with an immersion blender or transfer to a regular blender. 7. Ladle soup into bowls. Top with salad, if using.
