2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 Red Dog Farm yellow onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
8 oz German butterball potatoes (or other waxy potatoes), peeled and cubed
1 large Red Dog Farm kohlrabi, peeled and cubed
4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 bay leaf
Fresh herbs (optional, for serving)

In a stockpot, heat the olive oil. Add the onion and a pinch of salt, and cook with occasional stirring until the onion is softened but not browning, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, and cook for another 60 seconds or until the garlic is fragrant.

Add the cubed potatoes and kohlrabi, stirring to combine, and cook for about 1 minute. Add the vegetable broth and bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce it to a simmer. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the kohlrabi and potatoes are tender, about 20-25 minutes.

Remove the bay leaf. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth; or transfer to a blender or food processor and puree in batches. Season to taste with additional salt, pepper, and olive oil; serve warm.
