Sorry, don't have an answer.
Never thought of deep frying swede...but I suppose it's not that far away from deep-frying potatoes....

If I had a swede I would cut out the cooking time and throw it in the bin. Most veg is delicious, but not swede. Pig fodder in the winter.

Apology accepted micmak. Deep fry, pig fodder - and they wonder why we're bitter...

Adore swede mashed with butter and black pepper. Nothing better.

Never come across a bitter swede yet. Mind you some of them get very stringy and tough when they get old!!

Hi Swedie ;o)

I don't like turnip either. Next post will be from someone called Turnip head, or was that the England football manager?

it tastes lovely and i have had it before...but for some reason this time there was a bitter aftertaste....its was lovely to chew, but then left a weird taste

it was a fresh swede from a farm, peeled and rinsed...so not sure why..

it was a bit like the taste of some green peppers...a bitter taste on the back of the tongue...

do i need to boil it? soak it? salt it? etc etc

cheers
