I have a glut of swedes and need to thin them out. I know they will be perfectly ok in the ground until after the first frosts but the thinings are big enough to eat and are quite tender. Would it be best to cube them, blanch and freeze them -or should I cook them completely then freeze them? I use them for stews and mashed with butter. Thanks.

since OH is a Scot, we often have this argument !

swedes are the yellow things, turnips are white :-)
You are 100% correct, Boxy :-)
Just to confuse the issue further....

A member of the cabbage family, the swede is often confused with the turnip, though they look quite different. It's also known as yellow turnip, Swedish turnip and Russian turnip and, in America, rutabaga.

In Scotland, where it is known as neeps, swede is the traditional accompaniment to haggis on Burns night. Swede has a round shape and a purple-green skin, and the flesh is yellowy-orange, with a sweet, earthy flavour
boxy, that's *nivver* cabbage, not in a million years
After reading this, i will treat myself to turnip and a swede tomorrow.
