KOHLRABI WITH WHITE SAUCE



Kohlrabi with White Sauce image

When I was a nanny in Germany, this recipe was one I'd make often for the family. Tender kohlrabi cubes drenched in a creamy white sauce with a hint of nutmeg is a simple, mild, but flavorful side dish. Try this sauce over baked or fried potatoes, too.

Time 40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 medium (blank)s kohlrabi bulbs, peeled and cubed
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
3 tablespoons cream
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 teaspoons white pepper
½ bunch fresh parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Place the kohlrabi and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a saucepan. Cover with water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until kohlrabi can be pierced with a fork, but remains firm, about 5 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of cooking water. Place kohlrabi in a bowl, and cover.
  • Place the butter into the same saucepan, and melt over medium heat. Whisk in the flour, and stir until the mixture becomes paste-like and golden brown. Gradually whisk the milk and reserved cooking water from the kohlrabi into the flour mixture, stirring until thick and smooth. Stir in the cream, 1 teaspoon salt, nutmeg, white pepper, and parsley until well blended. Continue whisking until sauce thickens, then cook 10 minutes more. Stir in the kohlrabi, tossing to coat evenly with sauce.

Categories     Side Dish

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 to 4 fresh kohlrabi
2 cups broth or salted water
1 1/2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
Freshly grated nutmeg to taste
Salt to taste
Garnish: parsley

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Cut away the peel, being sure to remove any woody or stringy parts , just under the surface. If the bulb is young, you will not have to cut as deep as if it is old. If your kohlrabi is fresh, save some of the inner, tender leaves for garnish. Note: The younger the kohlrabi is, the better. Older vegetables become woody and very pungent. If you do have a large one, you will not need as many, but you may have to remove more of the peel.
  • Cut the bulb into thick slices with a large knife, then into strips or cubes, as you like.
  • Heat the vegetable broth or salted water to boiling, then add the kohlrabi, reduce the heat and cook the vegetables until soft, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain, reserving broth, and set aside.
  • Melt butter in a pan and stir in the flour. For a gluten-free sauce, use gluten-free flour, such as rice flour, brown rice flour or sorghum flour, all of which thicken just fine.
  • Cook the flour in the butter over medium heat for several minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Little by little add the saved broth or cooking water. Stir after each addition until smooth, then bring it back to bubbling. Add enough of the broth to make a velvety sauce, about 1 to 2 cups.
  • Season to taste with freshly grated nutmeg and salt.
  • Stir in the cooked kohlrabi and heat through.
  • Chop the reserved leaves and some parsley and sprinkle on top of the vegetables for a little color and a nice presentation.
  • Enjoy! Serve the kohlrabi with salt potatoes or rice and a pan-fried schnitzel or "Frikadellen" (seasoned hamburger patties) or a couple of fried eggs. Breaded, pan-fried fish fillets would also be good.

GERMAN-STYLE STUFFED KOHLRABI



German-Style Stuffed Kohlrabi image

Categories     Pork     Rice     Vegetable     Dinner     Fall     Gourmet

Yield Serves 4 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 kohlrabies (about 5 pounds), bulbs peeled, stems discarded, and the leaves trimmed of tough center ribs
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 garlic clove, chopped fine
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
1 pound ground pork
1/2 cup cooked long-grain rice
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley leaves plus additional for garnish if desired
2 tablespoons sweet paprika
1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram, crumbled
1/4 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 1/2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 large eggs, beaten lightly
3 1/2 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Trim 1/4 inch from the root end of each kohlrabi bulb so the bulb will stand upright, scoop out the pulp from the opposite end with a small melon-ball cutter or spoon, leaving 1/4-inch-thick shells, and chop it fine (there will be about 2 3/4 cups). In a large kettle of boiling salted water cook the kohlrabi leaves for 3 minutes, or until they are just tender, drain them well, and chop them fine (there will be about 2 cups).
  • In a large skillet cook the onion and the garlic in 2 tablespoons of the butter over moderate heat, stirring, until the onion is golden and transfer the mixture to a large bowl. To the bowl add the pork, the rice, 2 tablespoons of the parsley, the paprika, the marjoram, the caraway seeds, the tomato paste, the eggs, 1/2 cup of the kohlrabi pulp, 1/4 cup of the chopped kohlrabi leaves, and salt and pepper to taste and combine the mixture well. Divide the mixture among the kohlrabi shells, mounding it, and arrange the shells in a shallow flameproof baking dish just large enough to hold them in one layer. Scatter the remaining pulp and leaves in the dish and pour in the broth. Bring the broth to a boil and simmer the shells, covered partially, for 30 to 50 minutes, or until they can be pierced easily with a sharp knife. Transfer the shells with a slotted spoon to a plate, reserving the cooking mixture in the baking dish, and keep them warm.
  • In a small saucepan cook the flour in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter over moderate heat, whisking, for 3 minutes and whisk in the cream. Bring the mixture to a boil, whisking, simmer it for 1 minute, and stir it into the reserved cooking mixture, a little at a time. Add salt and pepper to taste and cook the sauce over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 10 minutes, or until it is thickened. Return the stuffed shells to the baking dish and garnish them with the additional parsley.
