Kohlrabi - Purple & White Vienna Blend
Kohlrabi prefer rich, moist, and well drained soil with lots of organic matter. Kohlrabi is a crisp, mild and sweet source of fiber, potassium, calcium, and vitamin C. The Kohlrabi Purple & White Vienna Blend, 'Brassica oleracea', is a curiously shaped member of the cabbage family. Plant in early spring, 4 to 6 weeks before average last frost or in late summer for fall harvest. It may look like a space alien has invaded your garden, but you'll welcome not only Kohlrabi's unusual shape and it's crisp, juicy flavor in salads and slaws. Also try steamed, sauteed, or stir-fried. Harvest when round portions are 2 to 3 inches wide. Its flavor has been described as similar to apples, mild turnips, broccoli stems, radish and cucumber. ... more info
