Kohlrabi

Buying Tips

Kohlrabi can be found in the produce section of most health food stores, specialty markets, and supermarkets. Choose firm, heavy kohlrabi with deep green leaves, avoiding any with browning or yellowing leaves.

Varieties

There are two types of kohlrabi, green and purple. The coloring should be light for the green one and deep for the purple one. The greens for both types should be crisp and firm.

Preparation, Uses, & Tips

Wash kohlrabi just before using. Peel it, cut it in 1/4-inch (0.6cm) slices, and sauté in butter or olive oil, or boil and mash like potatoes. To prepare the leaves, wash them, remove the middle stems, and sauté like spinach or chard.

Storing

Store kohlrabi, refrigerated and wrapped in plastic, for up to four days.
