Introducing Yukina Savoy and Kohlrabi

Yukina savoy – This is an Asian leafy green vegetable similar to Tatsoi or Bok Choy. It’s recommended that you cook it. It is excellent in stir-fries. It cooks quickly and should be added near the end of a stir-fry.

Kohlrabi - This has a crisp, juicy texture and slightly mustardy, slightly fruity taste. Peel the tough skin off before eating. You can eat kohlrabi raw and unaccompanied, and you can add grated or thinly sliced kohlrabi to a salad or coleslaw. Or sauté kohlrabi in butter or oil with onions, salt, and pepper.
