This is a great potluck dish, good hot or cold. The recipe is adapted from one I found on Whole Foods Market’s website.
As promised – pickles. These are pickles I grew up eating, turnip pickles dyed fuchsia with the addition of a beet. Perfect for this box – one small beet, all your turnips and a clove of that fresh garlic. This recipe actually comes by way of ABC. Diane Sawyer made a trip to Syria and brought back turnip pickles – the folks on “The Chew” provided a recipe to make these stateside.
Another recipe idea from the folks at Serenbe.
No doubt most of you have experimented with kale chips. How about kohlrabi chips? This recipe comes to us by way of the Wednesday morning Dunwoody Green Market.
Most of you probably don’t need a recipe for cornbread – but here’s one anyway from the October 2011 issue of Southern Living. Make it right before serving so you enjoy it hot out of the oven.
Jenn Robbins of Avalon Catering created this recipe to showcase colorful purple kohlrabi. It’s just as delicious with the more common green variety but it’s perfect for the purple variety which loses its lovely color when it’s cooked.
Slaw wasn’t her only idea for using this vegetable. “I love kohlrabi! It creams beautifully with the greens mixed in, goes great in a potato salad dressed with a lemon vinaigrette, we also shave it and mix it into chicken salad, use it in our cold weather glazed/scalloped vegetable dish and I have even seen a peer make kohlrabi kraut,” she said. So now you’ve got lots of other ideas for your kohlrabi.
This recipe from the venerated James Beard reminds me so much of the one my Syrian mom made. But it uses Swiss chard instead of spinach. Mama would have served this with rice. Yes, that seems like a lot of lemon juice, and you can cut it back, but it’s so delicious.
Oops – another recipe adapted from the folks at Prevention magazine …. but this one is great for incorporating lots of lots of vegetables. You can decide how much of your bok choy or Napa cabbage to include – the whole head? half? a quarter?
Hmmm …. guess I’m on a green onion binge. Well, here’s one more idea.
I’m spending a lot of time at my main job looking at magazines that focus on health. I’ve really come to appreciate little Prevention magazine and you’re also going to be seeing a lot of their recipes this year. This one comes from their book “Quick and Healthy Low-Fat Cooking.”
