I mean what if you don't have power tools, what do you do, boil the damn thing whole and then cut the purple bits off?

Peel it with a Sharp knife then cut it with a sharp knife. Or buy it already diced.

Put the whole thing in it’s skin in microwave, when it’s cooked just scoop it out and it’s ready mashed

I buy the pre packed mashed stuff which takes 5mins in the microwave.

I grow my own on my allotment.

Lancashire peeler and sharp kitchen knives should you want to slice n dice.

If you think you need power tools then your knives are too blunt my friend.

Was it wrong to wonder why you would want to dice up someone from Sweden?

They call this singing swede as it makes quite a noise while cooking I'm told.

Buy it diced. Life is too short. You’ll only end up cutting into it and it’ll skid across the counter top and take out your best tea cup. Nobody needs those bad vibes in their life.

I buy mine ready diced.

I stopped fighting the bloody things years ago, before I cut a finger off.

I buy diced sweet potato too.

Chop off the root and use a potato peeler on the skin. Chop into chunks and boil. Don't over-boil or it will disintegrate.

Easy innit

Yes I think so. Doesn’t he do the “what are your Friday night plans” thread? I assume it’s him as he usually does it! Lol

Get a decent chefs knife

Nisbets do some decent ones at ok prices, i recommend Wusthof

Cut the top and bottom off then you have a flat surface to work from using the knife to peel the skin

I have shit knives, but manage OK! Top and tail it so it sits on the chopping board. Halve vertically. From the cut end slice diagonally to take off the skin from the top half, twizzling as you go. Turn it over and repeat. You'll now have half a swede that's mostly peeled on the top and bottom halves. The middle bit will now peel like a potato cos it's not tethered either side.

Then cut into dice chunks.

Lovely in a stew!

And if you need a dumpling tutorial I'm your gal. Super cheap, super easy!

First you have to be the swede, know what it’s thinking, it’s hopes and desires only then will the swede Acquiesce with you.

Frozen vegetables are the way forward. Except carrots and mushrooms. Frozen fruit is pretty good too.

As a kid, I was given a swede instead of a pumpkin for making a Halloween lantern. The blisters on my hands were incredible

I am only permitted to buy swede at crimbo as it's given my boyfriend PTSD to peel and chop it following a horrific culinary incident when got a blister on the palm of his hand from holding the knife handle so tight whilst trying to cut through a swede.... I practically pissed myself laughing

Christmas last year I came home with 2 small swedes which I thought would be helpful for him when he chops them and I am likened to a piss taking cow bag...
