Purple Kohlrabi growing in a garden in Maple Valley, Washington, USA. Heirloom. In German, kohlrabi is a “cabbage turnip,” referring to the fact that it is in the cabbage family but forms an edible turnip-like bulb just above the soil line. Not truly a bulb, it is an expanded stem. The unusual purple bulbs have a mild turnip-like flavor and may be eaten cooked or raw.
