Giant Kohlrabi Recipe Challenge Entries

 

From Deedrie LaFollette

My dad is a man of few vegetables.  Growing up, dinner usually consisted of meat, potatoes, and a veg.  That meant corn, or green beans (cooked to almost grey, which I won’t lie, I still consider ultimate comfort food), or carrots.  Here and there, you could find a salted radish from the garden or broccoli and cauliflower with some chive dip, but that was about it. 

 Fast forward to my joining Abbe Hills CSA – I’m telling mom about my loot for the week and we are both clueless about kohlrabi.  We chat, we hang up, minutes later a call from Mom.  Turns out my dad loves kohlrabi with this dip that a coworker used to bring in to work.  She gave me the recipe and I mixed it up right away.

 I fiddled with it a bit and landed on this.  It’s a sweet compliment to the radishy bite of the kohlrabi.
