Our spring kohlrabi is coming along nicely.  Hope to have some for market in early June.

Our kohlrabi did’t do well last year, since spring was so HOT, but I think we will have a crop this year.  Looking forward to some simple, cooked Kohlrabi.

Cooked Kohlrabi

Peel skin from kohlrabi (kohlrabi smaller than 3 inches in diameter, you can leave skin on).  Cut into 1-inch cubes.  For approximately one pound of kohlrabi, add ¼ – ½ cup water and a few tablespoons of butter*.  Cook in microwave for around 10 minutes, or until tender.

*I add a sprinkling of sugar (½ – 1 T.)  before microwaving.  OR you can season with salt and pepper, and then top with parmesan cheese after microwaving.
