The roouddan was a red turnip-like vegetable. It was colloquially known as the "red turnip of Proskur". It grew around the Sea of Fallen Stars, and was a staple food of peasants. It could be used as a thickener in stews and as a base for livestock slop mashes. It kept long and well when protected from heat and the sun, as well as resisting rot and being edible when raw. Normally, roouddans were absorbent, and could not be grown in dry climates. As they absorbed water, they could also be induced to take on flavors by soaking it in spiced water or broth.
