Kohlrabi may look like an extraterrestrial, but it tastes like an amalgamation of familiar vegetables: broccoli, celery, and potato. By tossing it with ingredients akin to a classic American potato salad, the relatively unknown veggie becomes approachable and outright delicious. Of course, you can always just use spuds for a picnic-worthy potato salad (for that, see Chowhound’s easy potato salad).

Instructions

1Place kohlrabi in a medium pot of heavily salted water and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium low and simmer until kohlrabi is tender with a few pieces breaking off slightly at the edges, about 15 minutes.
2Meanwhile, stir together remaining ingredients in a large bowl until thoroughly combined. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and refrigerate until kohlrabi is finished cooking.
3When kohlrabi is ready, drain well and add to mayonnaise mixture. Stir until kohlrabi is well coated; taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Cover and refrigerate until cold, about 2 hours, before serving.

How to Make Kimchi at Home

Video from CHOW-TO

Kimchi has conquered the world! Most people know this popular Korean side dish as fermented cabbage, but the truth is you can kimchi pretty much any vegetable and fruit. Food explorers seek it at restaurants and/or specialty stores. This fermented delicacy is an immune-system boosting probiotic food, that includes "healthy bacteria". In the season finale of CHOW-TO, Atoboy's chef de cuisine YeongSoo Lee teaches Guillermo the basics on how to make the Korean staple. There is not one right recipe, here we learn the principles, and the idea is to make it your own. Kimchi is so customizable, that traditional Napa cabbage is just the start. YeongSoo shows us a couple of other variations for inspiration. Move over pickles, time to do some fermenting at home.
