Why do half my seedlings form bulbs but tthe rest just thicken a little up the stem? These are quite useless . I have tried them at different times of the year and the result is always the same

We like it roasted like spuds, or grated in salads, lightly steamed in fact any which way...so under rated. The green tops are nice too in stir fry or as a boiled veg. Do not let it get too big as it goes woody and then is quite unpleasant...not the taste, the texture with bits and shreds in your mouth.

In Norway we eat Kohl Rabi as a mash at Christmas. It is eaten with our salty lamb ribs that has been steamed. I would imagine that the mash would go well with corned beef as well. Steem the Kohl Rabi until tender, then mash along with a steamed potato or two (bear in mind that Norweagian Kohl Rabi is about 4 times the size of the ones "down under"). Hence I'd probably use 4 "down under" Kohl Rabi to 2 potatoes. Add about a table spoon of butter, and then cream until a nice mash consistency. Black pepper and salt to taste. Bon appetite!!

You can treat it like potatoe or carrot. Our favourite is to shred it and sautee it in butter. Try looking for recipes on google. There are many delicious ones out there.
