I’ve sliced it and tossed it in the oven with other veggies— just mellows it out. Favorite way is shredded in a slaw with carrots, red cabbage, apples and a cider vinegar dressing. 

@JB - yum love those ideas.  

@CG- friends of ours introduced me to them a few years back and I will get them from the farmers market.  

my dad use to put them on the grill! super good !! 

We used to grow kohlrabi and steamed it or roasted it. 

Never heard of it 

Raw with tajin yum! 

Raw for me. Love the stuff 

What does it taste like? 

I've not tried it but heard it was good grilled 

Taro shell jackfruit vegan tacos with kohlrabi slaw on top is one of my favorite dishes as a local spot. 

I think the slaw is kohlrabi, green apple and red cabbage. It’s very tasty.  

Glad you brought this up, always wondered about this veg. You eat it raw like an apple?  

@Maggs7 - I was thinking of grilling them too because I love cabbage grilled. 

@CG- I think it tastes more like a combination of a radish, cabbage and cauliflower! They are dense like a radish but just larger. 

@JSQ-I think roasting would be good. I love roasted cabbage and radishes, but I cut them up and leave them in water in my refrigerator and end up eating them all before I ever try anything new! LOL 

@lola - never thought about that - I always eat them plain with just a sprinkle of salt. 

@B76-I think it tastes more like cabbage with a radish undertone. It cuts harder than a potato but keeps in water in the refrigerator for a few days after cutting. 

@Katslo - I love the idea of it on tacos! 

@Diana - I wonder if it could be on your list? It is just as common as other items and we only have it for a month or two here.
