How to Grow

Sow seeds directly into well-drained, fertile soil in a sunny position. Plant 1–2cm deep, spacing 15–20cm apart. Water consistently to keep soil moist. Kohlrabi grows best in cool conditions — ideal for Australian autumn, winter, and spring gardens (March–October). Harvest when bulbs reach 5–8cm in diameter for the sweetest, most tender flavour — larger bulbs can become woody and less flavourful. The leaves can be harvested at any time and cooked like spinach or Asian greens.

In the Kitchen

Kohlrabi is wonderfully versatile — slice raw into Thai-style salads (yam) with lime dressing, chilli, and fresh herbs for a crisp, refreshing dish. Julienne and toss with Vietnamese-style dressing for a fresh, crunchy slaw. Stir-fry with garlic and oyster sauce for a quick, nutritious side. Add to Thai clear soup (gaeng jued) or miso soup for a mild, sweet flavour. Pickle in vinegar and sugar for a tangy condiment. Also delicious roasted with olive oil and herbs for a simple Western-style side.
