Description:	Big Kohlrabies this week. What is a Kohlrabi? Kohlrabi is a cruciferous vegetable, just like cabbage, broccoli and kale. It comes into season in the summer time. What Does Kohlrabi Taste Like? Kohlrabi tastes like a peppery version of the insides of a broccoli stem. It has the sweetness of the broccoli with a bit of the peppery spice of turnips or radishes. If you want to emphasize its sweetness, try adding a pinch of sugar when you're cooking kohlrabi. How to Enjoy Raw Kohlrabi Because of its appealing crunch, shaved or shredded kohlrabi is often turned into slaw or tossed into salads. Common Ways to Cook Kohlrabi There are several ways to cook kohlrabi, most of them similar to how you cook potatoes: boiled, steamed, roasted, fried or mashed. Slices and sticks can be stir-fried, and the whole stem can be hollowed out and stuffed with a veggie and rice or meat filling and baked like stuffed peppers. Kohlrabi greens are the top leaves that shoot off up the sides, and they can be cooked like spinach, or thinly sliced and added raw to salads.
