3 large ribs celery, peeled top to bottom with a vegetable peeler, removing all fibrous strings
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
4 ounces (1 bag or 2 bunches) watercress, stems trimmed

CELERY ROOT SALAD

This is one of my favorite winter salads. I often make a large bowl and store it in the fridge because the salad keeps well and intensifies in flavor over time. If you like, you can top the salad with chopped parsley.

GERMAN CELERY ROOT SALAD

Celery root salad (Selleriesalat) is a staple in Germany in winter. You can buy it ready-made in a jar but my mom always made it for us from scratch. If you like, you can add garlic or fresh herbs, but I prefer it plain.

Categories     Salad     Mustard     Root Vegetable     Radish     Fall     Healthy     Watercress     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds
1/2 cup white balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup minced shallots (2 medium)
2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 large bunches watercress, thick stems trimmed (about 6 cups packed)
1 1/2 pounds celery root (celeriac), trimmed, peeled, coarsely grated in processor or with box grater
20 radishes, trimmed, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Stir mustard seeds in dry skillet over medium heat until lightly toasted and starting to pop, about 3 minutes. Transfer to bowl; cool. Add vinegar, mustard, and shallots; whisk to blend. Gradually whisk in oil. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Toss watercress in large bowl with enough dressing to coat lightly. Divide watercress among plates. Combine celery root and radishes in same bowl; toss with enough of remaining dressing to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Top watercress with celery root mixture and serve.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, choose young, tender celery root and radishes.
  • If you can't find watercress, you can substitute arugula or baby kale.
  • To make the mustard seed dressing, use a good-quality Dijon mustard. If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can use yellow mustard, but the flavor will be less complex.
  • To toast the mustard seeds, heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the mustard seeds and cook, stirring constantly, until they are fragrant and toasted, about 2 minutes.
  • Let the salad sit for a few minutes before serving so that the flavors can meld.

Conclusion:

This celery root, radish, and watercress salad is a refreshing and flavorful dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. The mustard seed dressing adds a tangy and slightly spicy flavor that complements the sweetness of the celery root and radishes. This salad is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, potassium, and fiber.
