KOHLRABI
There 11 recipes in a now defunct magazine called "Vegetarian Gourmet".
You want the Spring 1994 issue if you can get it from your library or
other source.
I am over running the amount of room I feel comfortable taking in the
digest so you can contact me directly if you wish.
You can fix Kohlrabi like mashed potatoes, like slaw, braised, as soup
etc.
