Instructions: I grow kohlrabi in my kitchen garden... I guess Im honoring a family tradition as my grandparents (Austrian) always grew it in their garden... I dont have a recipe written down, but this is how I fix it

(just like grandma did... and she made it to 85... probably all those cole crops from her garden!): Peel the kohlrabi, dice, place in a pan with a little water and steam it just until tender. Add a little butter or margarine (optional), and salt and pepper to taste. Thats it!

BTW, kohlrabi come in both the greenish little sputnik form and the red or purple variety... nutritionally they are the same, and I cant tell the difference taste-wise. The purple ones are greenish on the inside and once peeled, you cannot tell the difference.

While kohlrabi are expensive in the markets, they are very easy to grow... if you have a garden, give them a try! [ Law ]
