Kohlrabi

The tubers are particularly tender and digestible before they have reached their full size. To prepare, wash the tubers, remove the roots, cut off the leaf stalks directly at the tuber, then peel and cut the tubers into slices or cubes. Kohlrabi is eaten raw in salads, but more often as a hot vegetable with many meat and other dishes. The heart leaves can also be used: chopped and added to salads or other dishes and served like spinach or used for roulades.
