Kohlrabi Slaw
Description
The Kohlrabi Slaw recipe uses fresh grated kohlrabi or alternatively green cabbage as its base, paired with grated carrots, shredded red cabbage, and thinly sliced red onion for varied crispness and color. The dressing comprises olive oil, white wine or apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Once the dressing is whisked until smooth, it coats the vegetables thoroughly when tossed together. Chilling the slaw for at least an hour before serving enhances the melding of flavors. The result is a bright, crunchy salad that complements many meals, bringing a fresh, lightly sweet, and acidic profile to the palate.
Preparing the kohlrabi involves peeling away the tough skin and removing stems before grating or shredding. The slaw stores best in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days and is not suitable for freezing to maintain its texture.
