Explanation

Swede (also called rutabaga in North America) is indeed a cross between a cabbage and a turnip, developed in the 17th century. It's larger and sweeter than a turnip, with yellow-orange flesh. The vegetable originated from Sweden (hence the name) and is a common winter vegetable in Northern European cuisine.
