Hakurei turnips have a mild, sweet, slightly peppery, and subtly fruity flavor, making them versatile for both raw and cooked dishes. They're often served raw on crudité platters, shredded over salads, or thinly sliced and combined with olive oil, citrus, seasonings, and cheese for a fresh dish, or used in sandwiches. A staple in Japanese cuisine, these turnips are valued for their nutritional benefits, believed to help prevent colds and other illnesses. They are rich in vitamin C, fiber, and potassium and are the swollen taproot of the plant
