Following up to "cineman" :

You could try Kohl Rabi this vegetable is versatile, it must be picked
when
about the size of a tennis ball or it will get woody.
here are some recipes for it.

there are more suggestions on here on what to use kohl rabi for

Or just peel it and eat it raw, like we do. It's like the inside of
cabbage-stems.

Raw as a salad:

Cabbage Kohl Rabi and Caraway Salad
2 Kohl Rabi peeled and grated

1/2 cabbage chopped

1 tbs. caraway

4 tbs. fresh lemon juice

2 tbs. olive oil

1/2 tsp. salt



Place the cabbage and kohl rabi in a bowl.

Pour over lemon juice and olive oil, add salt. Mix well

Sprinkle with caraway and serve.
