Kohlrabi

I am obsessed with food market shopping. I love finding new veggies and fruits, scouring the spice aisles or comparing the different varieties of quinoa.

Over my lunch break today, I picked up some fresh produce from the Manhattan Fruit Exchange and decided to try Kohlrabi as my new-grab-of-the-week.

I've never heard of this root veg, so decided to give it a shot. After doing a little research I've found that you can peel the outer skin and eat it raw in a salad. It is supposed to have a broccolli stalk taste to it with a hint of radish.

I'll try it tonight with my plate of veggies!
