1. Peel 2 to 3 pounds rutabagas and cut into chunks.
2. Put the rutabagas in a large saucepan and cover with water.
3. Add 1 teaspoon of the salt. Bring to a boil.
4. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 25 to 30 minutes or until tender.
5. Drain and let the rutabagas dry in a colander or in the pan with the top ajar.
