cjbeach Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Recipes for it from the CSA site. Hmmmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormy weather Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I like mine raw, peeled with salt, just crunchy slices. I've also diced it up and added it to Minestrone Soup. Mmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoVanGogh Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I like to grate the bulb portion and add to grated carrots and thinly sliced sweet onions, maybe some bell pepper. Then mix with an oil-vinegar dressing. I add a teaspoon or so of agave nectar to the dressing. Maybe salt and pepper. You can eat the leaves, too, like kale.

Jane in NC Posted May 13, 2010 Author Share Posted May 13, 2010 Thanks everyone! Several recipes I pulled up involved several kohlrabi (kohlrabis?) but I have just the one. So an addition to a salad it shall be, reserving the greenery for another day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jane in NC Posted May 13, 2010 Author Share Posted May 13, 2010 :lol: I saw the title of the post and thought "someone's gotten a CSA box". Spot on. This is one reason I love my CSA. A week or two ago I wondered, "What shall I do with this bundle of mitzuna?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happi duck Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Kohlrabi will always remind me of kindergarten. We took a field trip to a farm and I was the only kid who could identify kohlrabi! (btw we just eat it raw) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TammyinTN Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 You can cut it up and deep fry like french fries...yum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haiku Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Tara, shame, shame ;). I know, I'm bad. We dropped out of our CSA because we got mountains worth of kohlrabi, and I could never figure out the attraction. To me it was a lot of work for little reward to get the thing peeled, and then no on liked it anyway. :001_smile: Tara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
