Kohlrabi Carpaccio

Kohlrabi. Looking something like a Sputnik in vegetable form, with a squat bulb and antennae-like shoots, it is part of the cabbage family. The name translates as 'turnip cabbage' and the mild, sweet flavor is somewhere between a turnip and a waterchestnut, with a crisp, crunchy texture. It can be found in two colors, pale green and the less common purple.
