Orange Julius Recipe. The Orange Julius drink started out being my favorite when I went to the Mall as a teenager in the 1970's, so it has endured the test of time. Everyone had to get one. But they kept the recipe a secret for a long time. Be sure to read the History note at the bottom of the page. It's an easy recipe, the original smoothie.
Since kohlrabi is a cool-weather crop, most gardeners plant it in late winter or early spring and again in the late summer or early fall in order to get two crops a year.
Cooking with Kohlrabi. If cooked kohlrabi is your aim, try roasting cubes or wedges in the oven. The kohlrabi turns sweet and a bit caramelized in the high heat of the oven, making a great side dish for steak, grilled fish, or almost any main course dinner. You can also stir fry bite-sized pieces, add them to soups, or steam them. In all cases, the kohlrabi is ready to eat when it is tender.
