Turnips With Bacon And Pickled Mustard Seeds

• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup white balsamic vinegar or white wine vinegar
• 1/4 cup yellow mustard seeds
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1/4 pound thick-cut bacon, cut crosswise 1/4" thick
• 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
• 2 pounds baby turnips, trimmed, halved or quartered if large
• Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper

1. Bring sugar, vinegar, and 1/4 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from heat and stir in mustard seeds. Let stand at least 4 hours, or cover and chill up to 12 hours.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add bacon and cook, stirring occasionally, until brown and crisp, 8-10 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer bacon to a small bowl and stir in pickled mustard seeds and whole grain mustard; set vinaigrette aside.
3. Meanwhile, cook turnips in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and pat turnips dry.
4. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add turnips and vinaigrette and cook, tossing, until warmed through, about 2 minutes; season with salt and pepper.
