Purple kohlrabi produces elegant little microgreen shoots with pinkish-mauve stems and tender-green cotyledons — a more subtle visual variation than the Red Cabbage already described in our pages, the purple here being paler, more delicate, almost pink.

A very mild, fresh flavour, pleasantly sweet, with the characteristic note of mature kohlrabi — a unique blend between apple and broccoli stem, with none of the pungent or bitter edge. Juicy, crunchy texture. Excellent as a versatile garnish: fresh salads, cold sandwiches, Vietnamese summer rolls, fish tartare, or simply as a decorative crown around a tartare or carpaccio where the pink colour makes a remarkable effect.

Like all Brassica sprouts, rich in sulforaphane.

  • Soaking: not required (small seeds); optional 4-6 hours.
  • Germination time: 2-3 days.
  • Sprout harvest: 4-6 days after soaking begins.
  • Microgreen harvest: 8-12 days after sowing.
  • Yield: about 1 tsp of seeds produces a 20 × 20 cm tray of microgreens.
  • Best uses: salads, elegant garnishes, summer rolls.
