The one she bought last weekend was a small round pale green globe with leaves growing out of the sides and top.  Although it&#8217;s a member of the cabbage family, she eats it as though it was an apple.  BECAUSE it&#8217;s a part of the cabbage family, it&#8217;s probably a very good addition to her diet!<br \/>\nThis is how the University of Illinois describes <a href=\"http:\/\/www.urbanext.uiuc.edu\/veggies\/kohlrabi1.html\">kohlrabi:<\/a><br \/>\nKohlrabi is a part of the cabbage family. It was first grown in Europe around 1500 and was imported into America 300 years later. It has a turnip like appearance, with leaves standing out like spokes from the edible portion, which is a rounded, enlarged stem section growing just above the soil line. Kohlrabi is sometimes misclassified as a root vegetable.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/plantanswers.tamu.edu\/publications\/vegetabletravelers\/kohlrabi.html\">Here&#8217;s <\/a>another site, with more information.  It seems that kohlrabi is native to Europe, and has only been introduce to the US in the last two hundred years or so.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Kohlrabi\">Wikipedia<\/a> has a good picture of kohlrabi in their entry.<br \/>\nAnd here&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/dmoz.org\/Home\/Cooking\/Fruits_and_Vegetables\/Kohlrabi\/\">a site <\/a>that offers recipes!<br \/>\nBod, I hope this helps.  Kohlrabi are readily available here, but since I don&#8217;t see huge displays of them, I suspect they are used sparingly.  I&#8217;ll have to ask my sister how she came to know about them.  She&#8217;s the only one in my family, to the best of my knowledge, who eats kohlrabi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bod, my sister is the one who loves kohlrabi, so I can&#8217;t tell you how it tastes, but I can surf for information so that you&#8217;ll know what it is.
