| One of my neighbors gave me this to try but I don't know what it is. She said to just eat the bulb raw in a salad and it has a distinct flavor. The leaves are supposed to taste like broccoli. Should I cook it? Any of you use this before? Thanks in advance. |

| I think it's kohlrabi; don't know about how to eat it, but look it up and see what you think. |

| Kohlrabi to be sure. Just google "kohlrabi recipe." Yummy raw. FataMorgana |

| My dad grew it in the veg garden when I was a kid. Our family's favorite way to eat it: -Slice thinly top to bottom -Sprinkle with kosher salt -Insert in mouth. Delicious fresh, but don't ever buy it from the grocery store (it will taste like cardboard.) |

| Forgot to say: you'll want to peel before eating. |
