Kohl Rabi is a member of the brassica family.
With the stem just above ground level, it swells to form the crisp, juicy vegetable with a texture much like Water Chestnut.
Its flavour is much like that of a turnip but milder.
Green Delicacy has pale green skin with pure white flesh within.
It boasts a fine texture and flavour when harvested the size of a tennis ball and is the earliest of all the varieties.
Simply roasted, this alien looking vegetable is delicious.
