Etymology
The word "neep" comes from the Old English word "næp", which refers to a type of root vegetable. The word "næp" is cognate with the German word "Nabe", the Dutch word "naap", and the Swedish word "näpa".
Meaning
A neep is a root vegetable that is typically round or oblong in shape, with a thick, fleshy taproot. It has a light brown or yellow skin and a white or cream-coloured flesh. Neeps are a source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, potassium, and dietary fibre.
Origin
Neeps are native to Europe and Asia. They have been cultivated for centuries, and were once a staple food in many parts of the world. Today, neeps are still popular in the United Kingdom, Ireland, and other parts of Europe. They are often used in soups, stews, and other traditional dishes.
