Description
“Kossack” is the giant-size version of Kohlrabi, bred for it’s enormous size but without that “woodiness” that sometimes affects large veggies. In fact, it stays tender even as it grows to 4 pounds or better!
Valley Flora Farm in Langlois says this is their sweetest and most tender variety, and that they store for months in the refrigerator! Each bulb will easily make a nice side dish for a family of four. Before storing, remove the leaves and stems, then keep in the crisper. Grown using organic practices.
Kohlrabi is German for “cabbage-turnip” and has a mix of both flavors; the cabbage flavor is strongest when eaten raw, and the turnip flavor comes out with cooking. Use in any recipe that calls for kohlrabi. Great raw as well as cooked!
