Crunchy Kohlrabi & Apple Slaw

Prep time: 20 minutes | Serves: 4

The Base (The Crunch)

  • Kohlrabi: 1 bulb, peeled and julienned (cut into matchsticks).
  • Gala Apple: 1 large, julienned (keep the skin on for color).
  • Green Cabbage: 2 cups, thinly shredded.
  • Sugar Snap Peas: 1 cup, sliced thinly on the diagonal.
  • Red Leaf Lettuce: 1 head, torn into bite-sized pieces (to serve as the bed).

The Sweet Additions

  • Red Grapes: 1 cup, halved.
  • Strawberries: 1 cup, hulled and sliced.

The Zesty Garlic-Citrus Dressing

  • Garlic: 1-2 cloves, finely minced or pasted.
  • Lemon & Lime: Juice of half a lemon and a full lime (roughly 3 tbsp total).
  • Optional: 3 tbsp Olive oil, 1 tsp honey (to balance the lime), and a pinch of salt/pepper.

Instructions

  1. Prep the Dressing: In a small jar, combine the minced garlic, lemon juice, and lime juice. If you have olive oil and honey on hand, add those too. Shake well and let it sit for 5 minutes; the citrus juice will “mellow” the raw garlic bite.
  2. Macerate the Fruit: Toss the sliced strawberries and apples in a small bowl with a teaspoon of the dressing. This prevents the apples from browning and draws out the strawberry juice to enrich the dressing.
  3. Build the Slaw: In a large mixing bowl, toss the kohlrabi, cabbage, and sugar snap peas. Pour the remaining dressing over the vegetables and toss thoroughly.
  4. The Mix-In: Gently fold in the grapes and the strawberry/apple mixture.
  5. Serve: Line a large platter or individual bowls with the red leaf lettuce and pile the slaw high in the center.

Tips for this Recipe

  • Texture: Kohlrabi tastes like a mild, sweet broccoli stem. Cutting it into thin matchsticks ensures it isn’t too “woody” to eat raw.
  • Storage: If you aren’t eating this immediately, wait to add the strawberries and lettuce until right before serving so they don’t get soggy.
