Method:
In a large pot of boiling water cook the vegetables and garlic until tender, about 40 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove the vegetables to a food processor and purée with the butter and the milk. If the consistency is too thick, add some vegetable cooking water until you have the desired consistence. Season with salt and cayenne. Spread in shallow serving dish and sprinkle with chives.
Notes:
A nutrionist talks about Root Vegetables
Variations:
  • any root vegetables that are in season may be used; these are winter root vegetables
  • instead of puréeing the vegetables, when fork tender; sautée (lightly) the vegetables in olive oil, then dress with the cayenne and chives
