A Recipe for June from An English Vineyard Cookbook

Kohlrabi, Goat’s Cheese & Broad Bean Salad

Our June Salad is a little different, using the lovely crunch of kohlrabi with shaved goat’s cheese and broad beans. This is a garden dish to enjoy with a chilled glass of delicate rosé wine – Provençal, Anjou or Sussex – on one of the longest days of the year.

Ingredients
Serves 6

1 large Kohlrabi Bulb
100g hard English Goat’s Cheese
100g Broad Beans
40g Almond Nibs
Rock Salt and Pink Peppercorns
Dill Sprigs
Virgin Rapeseed Oil

Method 

1 Peel the kohlrabi with a wide-mouthed peeler. Cut it into 4, then slice as thinly as possible, on a mandolin or with a very sharp knife. If you are not using the slices right away, put them in a bowl, cover with cold water and add a little lemon juice.
2 Remove the broad beans from their long pods and cook them in lightly salted boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain, refresh and, as soon as they are cool enough to handle, squeeze out the kernels; discard the outer skins.
3 Shave the goat’s cheese, again using a wide-mouthed peeler.
4 Assemble the salad in layers of sliced kohlrabi, cheese shavings and broad beans. Finish with a sprinkle of nibbed almonds, rock salt, pink peppercorns, dill sprigs and a drizzle of oil.
