Turnip Mashed Potatoes

Makes 4 servings

About 1 pound of turnips, peeled and quartered
2 or 3 all-purpose potatoes (about 1 pound), peeled and quartered
1/4 cup milk
2 to 3 tablespoons butter
Salt and white pepper

Cook the turnips and potatoes separately in boiling, salted water until tender -- about 15 minutes for turnips and 20 minutes for potatoes. Drain well and combine in one pan. Shake the pan over heat to dry out completely. Remove from heat and add the milk and butter. Mash until smooth and well blended. Season to taste with salt and plenty of white pepper.
