Honey-Peppered Turnips

A translation of a recipe from De Re Coquinaria, the ancient Roman cookbook, this dish is from Bert Greene’s classic Greene on Greens. (4-6 servings)

1 Tablespoon unsalted butter
2 Tablespoons honey
1 pound turnips, peeled, cut into
¼-inch dice
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt
Chopped fresh parsley

Melt the butter with the honey in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in the turnips and pepper. Cook, covered, until tender, about 12 minutes. Add salt to taste and sprinkle with parsley.
