For a richer flavor, consider using browned butter for the sauce. A pinch of cayenne pepper can add a subtle kick to the white sauce. If you don't have fresh parsley, dried parsley can be used (use about 1 teaspoon). The reserved kohlrabi water adds a subtle sweetness to the sauce but chicken or vegetable stock could also be used. For a vegetarian version, ensure that the white pepper is 100% plant based.
