Ingredients

  • 2 bacon slices, cut crosswise into thin strips
  • 5 1/2 cups cubed peeled rutabaga (about 2 pounds)
  • 4 cups water
  • 2 cups cubed peeled baking potato (about 3/4 pound)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Method

  • Cook bacon in a Dutch oven over medium heat 5 minutes or until done (but not crisp). Add rutabaga, water, and potato. Bring to a boil; cook 20 minutes or until tender. Drain the rutabaga mixture in a colander over a bowl, reserving 3/4 cup cooking liquid. Combine 3/4 cup cooking liquid and rutabaga mixture in a blender, and process until smooth. Stir in salt and pepper.
