creamy, satisfying soup. You can  substitute rutabaga for the turnips
if you prefer. Pat's Notes: Not  your ordinary potato soup. Finely chop
about a fourth of the onions  and sweat them very soup. Add those to
the soup and then puree.  Garnish the soup with the sliced onion and a
dusting of nutmeg. It  served two, with bread, Mollie Katzen's pickled
carrots and shredded  cabbage. >from Pat Hanneman (kitpath) 98feb to
