I was thrilled when Robin from Our Big Earth asked me to guest blog for them. This kid-friendly, community blog is always fun to read, they have so many creative ideas and activities for the kids in the valley. Their community is environmentally conscious, modern, and they are rearing their kids with sustainability in mind. What would I not do to someday raise my kids in such a wonderful place?
I found the most beautiful and whimsical looking vegetable that I have ever cooked with -- kohlrabi. Julie Rice from Red Barn Organic Farm told me a bit more about kohlrabi, and she gave me the most gorgeous specimen of this green vegetable. See and read more about my Kohlrabi Salad with Honey-Lemon Dressing for the Comox Valley Kids.

Yummmm I've been looking for kholrabi too. It's a staple in Kashmiri diet. We just pressure cook everything including the leaves with salt and asafoetida and a wee bit of oil...it's ready in minutes and tastes like heaven with rice and yoghurt.
Congrats. It looks good.
I often see it at store but have no idea how to prepare it. Your yummy salad dressing is a good way to start!
Hi Mohini, this is new to me, never had this one before. Looks yum with the saunf, cheese n walnuts n all . Can imagine how wonderful it must be.
Meghna - That's how we have cabbage and kohlrabi tastes to much like it, so I can imagine how good that would taste.
Maybelle's Mom - Thanks!!
Gattina - Thanks, try with a soft sweet vinegar dressing would be good too! I was only making it more child friendly :)
Kajal - Yes, I rarely ate it too...only in restaurants...this time I had to buy it at the market :) and I'll be buying it lots more. You won't believe how good cooked kohlrabi tastes too.
