Hungarian Kohlrabi Soup

From CSA Farmers Market

<p>This recipe is from a little pocket-size cookbook (Hungarian Recipes) Pat Gall found in a Hungarian shop in Youngstown OH</p> <p>To make things a little healthier, plain yogurt for the sour cream, and sometimes add other veggies, like broccoli. In fact, I&#8217;ve floated some shaved cheese and bacon bits on top of the bowl before serving.</p>
