Keep in mind
When you are buying turnip make sure that it is not loose and does not have a very thick skin. If the leaves are still on, turnip will stay fresh longer.
If you have a cold press, you may mix turnip with other fruits and vegetables and offer it as a drink to your baby so that it can get all the benefit from turnip's juice.
You should wash turnip well before removing its skin. Because sometimes producers coat it with a glaze. The best way is to wash and peel it.
