    Bitter swedes

    Just harvested my first swede and cooked it last night before mashing it with some butter and pepper.

    For some reason it had a bitter after taste. Anyone know why ?

    It was a decent size and a modern variety grown from seed so not sure what has gone wrong.

    Is there anything i can do as i have two rows of them

    I find they taste bitter if I haven't watered them enough during any dry spells.
    They do tend to sweeten up after a frost, so don't give up on them yet.

      Try using them in stews see if they taste better cooked that way or maybe cook them with a sweeter tasting veg.
