Slice the turnips into slices about ⅛ of an inch thick and place them on a cookie sheet.

Sprinkle the slices with salt and allow them to stand for 2 hours.

After 2 hours, rinse and drain the slices and set them aside.

In a saucepan, combine the marinade ingredients and bring the mixture to a boil.

Add the turnips and toss them with the marinade.

Continue cooking until the liquid comes to a boil.

Allow the turnips and the liquid to cool, then transfer the slices and marinade to a glass jar.

Cover the jar and refrigerate up to 12 hours, shaking the jar occasionally, to allow the flavors to blend.
