  1. Trim 1/4 inch from the root end of each kohlrabi bulb so the bulb will stand upright, scoop out the pulp from the opposite end with a small melon-ball cutter or possibly spoon, leaving 1/4-inch-thick shells, and chop it fine (there will be about 2 3/4 c.). In a large kettle of boiling salted water cook the kohlrabi leaves for 3 min, or possibly till they are just tender, drain them well, and chop them fine (there will be about 2 c.).

Divide the mix among the kohlrabi shells, mounding it, and arrange the shells in a shallow flameproof baking dish just large sufficient to hold them in one layer. Scatter the remaining pulp and leaves in the dish and pour in the broth. Bring the broth to a boil and simmer the shells, covered partially, for 30 to 50 min, or possibly till they can be pierced easily with a sharp knife. Transfer the shells with a slotted spoon to a plate, reserving the cooking mix in the baking dish, and keep them hot.

  6. baking dish and garnish them with the additional parsley.
