Kohlrabi, Bok Choy, and Turnip Rice Bowl
July 10, 2018
Unsure what to do with kohlrabi and turnip? This recipe will hopefully give you inspiration to use these sometimes unpopular or unheard of veggies. On the farm, kohlrabi is on the top of the list for many of us when it comes to favourite vegetables. Kohlrabi is slightly crunchy and mildly spicy, and can be eaten raw or cooked. The turnip is misunderstood and passed over all too quickly. Raw, its flavour is sharp, even unpleasant. But as it cooks, the turnip softens into a milder, earthy, slightly sweet flavour. You can eat both kohlrabi greens and turnip greens, so make sure you reserve them for a future recipe!
