I didn't know what to do with it besides eat it raw, but I figured it would do well with an Asian-style dressing.
So I julienned up the kohlrabi and tossed it with some lemon juice. I don't know if kohlrabi turns brown, but I didn't want to take any chances. Which is kind of funny, really, since I added fish sauce and soy sauce later.
The dressing was a bit of sugar, some rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, and fish sauce, nuked just enough to dissolve the sugar. A few squirts of sriracha, and I was ready to go. Dump the dressing on the kohlrabi, toss a bit. Eat. Not bad, if I do say so myself.

Hi CC - I grew up eating kohlrabi 'cause my mom grew it in her garden. It took me a good 7 years to find it when I moved to CA. It's kind of like jicama, only denser and greener-tasting.
Kind of like jicama huh? Well, what's jicama? :D
I've been meaning to try kohlrabi, I keep seeing people write about it.
Hi Bob -
This is jicama :)
