Kohlrabi is another veggie that seems hidden away. It has a mild turnip flavour and is delicious mixed with carrot or on it's own. Use it raw, chopped in a green salad. It' very, very good and a nice change. You may substitute turnip for the Kohlrabi in this recipe

Really good. I had kohlrabi from our CSA and had never had it before. It kind of reminds me of a cross btwn brocoli and parsnips. I really liked the nutmeg in it and never would have thought of that!

    I love raw kohlrabi, so I wanted to give a shot at cooked. I was very pleased with the results. The carrots paired perfectly with the kohlrabi, but I did not notice the nutmeg flavor much. Perhaps my nutmeg is past it's expiration.

    I followed the recipe (minus the butter) and the result was pretty bland. It improved after I added some low-fat yoghurt, dill, parsley, caraway seeds and a bit of Dijon mustard. I think this recipe shoud be treated as a base - cook it as recommended, and then add things to it to improve the flavour!

    This was good but I don't think it was quite what I was expecting. The flavours blended nicely and the nutmeg was a nice touch but I found it rather bland. We like both vegetables. I might try to blend them together with another stronger spice. My boyfriend said he would prefer them seperately. Thanks for posting.
