Turnips I know are white vegetables.

Do you know a purple and white turnip?

I was surprised to find one at a farmer's market.
I bought them for 100 yen.

"They are called ayame-yuki-kabu," said the farmer to me.

"This is the first year I planted them," he added.

I lightly salted them down.

How delicious!
