Kohlrabi and Cucumber Fresh Spring Rolls
The challenge of using kohlrabi...hmmm...how about:

hey, why not. Time to get busy with combining more vegetables. For these, I brought out my handy V-Slicer. Scares me every time I use it.
1 Peeled Kohlrabi thinly sliced
1 Cucumber thinly sliced
some of the Nevada Summer Crisp Lettuce in large tears
Onion tops, again thinly sliced
and a bit of basil from the garden
I had some Vietnamese Spring Roll Skins lying around, so I carefully rehydrated those. Sadly, I can't share the peanut sauce recipe because I tried 3 times and failed on each attempt. Too salty, even using low-sodium soy sauce. By the third attempt I had run out of lime juice, garlic, rice wine vinegar...etc. Everything ran out at once. I tried substituting, but to no avail.
All in all, a good use of the veggies. The kohlrabi has a taste I found similar to cabbage and radish. Not bad raw. Haven't tried it cooked yet.
