Kohlrabi Slaw
Description
Kohlrabi Slaw is a salad centered on kohlrabi peeled and sliced into matchsticks, combined with similarly cut apple for a crisp, slightly sweet base. Thinly sliced red onion adds sharpness, while toasted hazelnuts provide a toasted nutty crunch. The dressing melds together apple cider vinegar, honey, whole grain mustard, fine sea salt, and extra-virgin olive or hazelnut oil to produce a smooth vinaigrette that coats the vegetables evenly when tossed. Fresh parsley sprinkled on top contributes a fresh herbal note.
The textures vary between crisp vegetables and crunchy nuts, complemented by the dressing's sweet and tangy flavor profile. This slaw is served cold and can act as a palate cleanser or a bright accompaniment to grilled or roasted dishes. Its fresh character lends it well to meals where something light and crisp is needed.
Because of the simple preparation, it is ideal for making fresh just before serving to retain that crunchiness. Adjust seasoning to taste with salt and pepper before serving.
