It's so fresh and tempting. Never tasted it. Just looked in one of my cookbooks and saw two recipes: 'au gratin, with Camembert cheese and cooked ham', and 'in cream sauce with bacon'. Can hardly wait till shopping tomorrow.
CherryPie, four posts on one day made your Kohlrabi. :) Enjoy the delicatesse.
Claudia, potatoes, meat loaf, Kohlrabi - one evidence for that simple meals can be most delicious. Hope you enjoyed to feel the first Kohlrabi melting on your tongue. :)
To meet with a Kohlrabi has been (still is) quite an adventure! First, although I had brought your photos, it was hard to locate it. Then, when I suggested to the helpful vegman to cut the leaves off, he looked at me with pity. "You know nothing! Everything good, very good." And he gave me part of a leaf to chew on. A bit bitter...I brought the whole kohlrabi home, looked in the English-French Dictionary, saw chou-rave. I googled the name and discovered (as you say) that I didn't need any fancy recipes to enjoy the kohlrabi, raw, or steamed. Tonight, I'm using it in a pasta dish.
Your kohlrabi is OK, Sean. It has been fun to read all the articles on the internet. Many people rave about it. Thanks!:)
Claudia, a pleasure to read your Kohlrabi adventure. ... in a pasta dish?! Hm. So far we had always potatoes with the Kohlrabi. If I am able to convince the female majority, we'll give it a try, though. Enjoy your meal.
Jams, my pleasure. :) Almost off topic: Rumour goes that pregant with an idea McSeanagall has retreated in the labour room of his thoughts joyously expecting to give birth to an Ode to Kohlrabi.
How beautiful. If Jams isn't quick I might steal them before his eyes ;-)
