Turnips are an adaptable root vegetable used in soups, stews, roasts and pickles. China grows several varieties that differ in color, shape and flavor, giving buyers options for different cuisines.

Common varieties

Turnip types include white, green-top, purple-top and smaller salad varieties. Root shape ranges from round to elongated, and flavor from mild to slightly peppery - each suited to different cooking uses.

Choosing by use

Round, mild varieties suit fresh salads and roasting, while firmer roots work well in long-cooked dishes and pickling. Buyers select varieties to match their market's cooking traditions.

Harvest and handling

Turnips are harvested at the right maturity to avoid woody or pithy texture, then trimmed. Prompt grading by size and variety keeps each lot clean and consistent.

Packing and export

Selected roots are packed in ventilated cartons by size and grade, with careful loading to protect them in transit. Proper storage and prompt cold handling keep turnips firm and fresh.
