Kohlrabi salad with cheese and thyme

Kohlrabi has such an interesting flavor but I have never thought of making a salad with it … until I found this recipe. The kohlrabi is drizzled with some olive oil and lemon juice and is paired with the savory cheese and thyme and voila! … a delicious salad is made!

RECIPE

Serves 2 people

Ingredients

  • 1 kohlrabi (green, purple or white)
  • handful of hard goats’ cheese or sheep’s’ cheese or any stronger flavored hard cheese
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • a few springs of fresh thyme, chopped

Directions

  • Peel the kohlrabi. Shave it on a grader.
  • Shave the cheese on the grader as well. I like to crumple some of the cheese to cover the kohlrabi and put some shaved pieces on the top. The amount is something like a handful.
  • Pour on the lemon juice and drizzle on some olive oil.
  • Add salt and freshly graded black pepper corn.
  • Add the chopped thyme.
  • Mix and serve.

enjoy!
