Editors Review
This is absolutely the perfect side dish to compliment your holiday roasts and is rather unique from the regular sides that feature on holiday menus. Kohlrabi is one of those vegetables that no one seems to eat. It is like the ugly duckling in the vegetable family. It’s really a versatile vegetable that can be eaten raw, shredded in a slaw or roasted either hot or cold. As far as the flavor, think turnips and cabbage. This roasted kohlrabi and wild rice salad has a beautiful blend of flavors and textures. TChef
