Here’s a tasty vegetable soup featuring rutabaga. Rutabaga is a healthy root vegetable you can use like a potato, but with less than half the calories and carbs of potato. Rutabaga is like a larger version of a turnip, only sweeter. It’s related to cabbage, and has a mild cabbagy taste, but not the “scary” cabbagy taste. Rutabaga is great in soups, and I love it simply seasoned and roasted in the oven. Like most produce, when buying rutabaga choose one that’s firm and seems heavy for it’s size, because that means it’s not too old, or dried out. Next time you’re at the market, pick up a rutabaga and give this vegetable soup a try and let me know what you think.

How to make a Vegetable Soup with Rutabaga Slice the ends off the rutabaga and cut away the outer skin with a knife. Chop rutabaga into large cubes, approximately 1/2 “squares, but err on larger pieces. In a large soup pot, heat oil on medium heat. Add seeds and cook about 20 seconds. Add garlic, hot pepper, and onion and saute for another 4-5 minutes. Add in seasoning and mix well. Add carrot, celery and rutabaga and mix well. Fill pot with enough broth or water to cover veggies (use veggie or chicken broth instead of water if eating soup the same day, use water if sitting overnight), cover with a lid, and bring pot to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer on low for 40-50 minutes until rutabaga is fork tender. That’s it! Give this easy rutabaga soup recipe a try and let me know what you think, and bon appétit!.

Did this dude really try listening to the rutabaga to determine its weight?
what a legend
Oh it's a swede.
I tried vegetable soup with rutabaga the other day but after 1.5 hours the rutabaga was still not cooked fully – and my cubes were smaller – dont get this – why ?
Can't wait to do this with leeks. Love my rubbadega
I love rutabagas so much! I grew up on them and they are amazing!
One of my favourite vegies!
Why doesn't this video have a bazillion views???
Love the rutabaga. Here in CT, its a waxed turnip. It will store for a month in the refrigerator. Nice batch of vegetables. Have a great day folks.
You people are TOO CUTE ❗️😄Thank you for that (& for sharing great ideas). Cheers. 🤗 lee
So far I have liked every recipe of yours that I have tried. When can we expect to buy your new cookbook. I think you and Camera girl should write a cookbook.
I'm scared of the rut-a-bega. Actually, I don't even know what a rut-a-bega is. As always — very best to you and Lisa!
So are you REALLY from the south? You say “potatuh” as if you were, but you also say “rutabaga.” A true southerner says “ruder-baygers”. Jus sayin…
Gonna have to try this soon. I moved from Texas to Massachusetts and I am not acclimating to all this cold and rain as quickly as I thought I would. 😀
This went down a treat with my 3 men. Thank you.
Thanks for the recipe looks great soon I will make it
Is a rutabaga the same thing as a turnip?? 🧐
What a Great Idea.👍
Rah! Rah! Rutabaga! Love them and this is a great soup. Did I mention I love soup also!
Haven't had any decent soup in quite some time! Thanks, Buck!
i just love the way you keep pushing rutabaga in my face! i know you are doing it on purpose. but on a serious note, looks good, thank you chef buck.
Favorite ingredient in slow cook vegetable lamb soup
I've never cooked with rutabegas before, but I might give them a try now. I love your videos XD.

Thanks for sharing this recipe with your viewers, Chef Buck ❣ ⏩💙⏪
Great recipe especially for diabetics such as myself who doesn't like eating potatoes because of the starch, looks yummy!
Rutabagas are like potatoes' crazy uncle. That's why I like them.
Carrot cake recipes, i once substituted beets and you couldn't tell the difference….I wonder if you made one with a rutabaga, i bet any root vegetable would work….Maybe you could try it, i'm super busy getting ready for the lobster season….Rutabaga cake w/ cream cheese frosting!
Healthy recipe..
I love those, great in a beef stew….Can't wait to try this on a rainy day.
Too good recipe..
I thought was a turnip.
Very good like my dear friend !
Chef Buck love your channel. Is this recipe okay for type 2 diabetes?
1 potata 2 potato. I can't do the Rudabaga. Couldn't get a knife through it. If someone ever gives me one I'm using the reciprocating saw.
My grandmother insisted on Rutebegas at every thanksgiving. I love them now! Can’t wait to try this!
