Looking for a less spicy and more sweet alternative to radish? Turnip is the answer. Turnip is also more nutritious than radish with good amount of Vitamins A, B3, B5, B6, C, E, and K in addition to calcium and folic acid. Turnips also have a much longer shelf life than radish. Though generally consumed raw, turnips tend to turn sweeter and more flavorful when cooked. Ever tried Shalgam Saag? You'll enjoy it.
