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.

Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Juice of 2 lemons
Kosher salt
1 medium celery root
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
Freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 head frisee, torn
1 head radicchio, torn

Steps:

  • Fill a bowl with ice water; add half of the lemon juice and 1 tablespoon salt. Peel the celery root with a paring knife. Rinse, then cut into matchsticks. Add to the lemon water and let soak 15 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
  • Whisk the remaining lemon juice, the mustard, vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl; gradually whisk in the olive oil, then the cream. Add the celery root and toss; cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Arrange the frisee and radicchio on a platter. Top with the celery root mixture.

Tips:

  • Choose the right celery root: Look for a celery root that is firm and heavy for its size, with no blemishes or cracks.
  • Peel the celery root carefully: Use a sharp knife or vegetable peeler to remove the tough outer layer of the celery root. Be careful not to remove too much of the flesh.
  • Slice the celery root thinly: This will help the salad to absorb the dressing more easily.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the celery root: A dull knife will crush the celery root and make it difficult to slice thinly.
  • Don't overcook the celery root: It should be tender but still slightly crunchy.
  • Use a light hand with the dressing: You don't want to overpower the delicate flavor of the celery root.
  • Serve the salad immediately: Celery root salad is best enjoyed fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.

Conclusion:

Celery root salad is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its unique flavor and texture, celery root salad is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
