I once had a friend named Kohlrabi
And he was friendly as friendly could be
I often had him for dinner
I sometimes had him for tea
But winter she was soon ended
And Mr. Kohlrabi went home
Hot sunny days and hot humid nights
Are not where Mr. Kohlrabi prefers to roam!
But fall will come as it always does
And seeds I will put in the ground
The weeks will pass and the rain will fall
And Mr. Kohlrabi soon will come round!

A lovely plant.
Can be eaten raw and crispy in salads [cut off the thick skin]. I also use it like a root vegetable and grill, roast or bake it. It tastes like a potato with some attitude-not spicy mind you--just kind of the different flavor in town.
