1 small celery root (about 12 ounces), trimmed, peeled, and cut into matchsticks (2 cups)
1 Granny Smith apple, cut into matchsticks (2 cups)
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon fresh cider
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a bowl, and toss. Let stand for 30 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the vegetables. This will help them absorb the dressing more evenly and make them more tender.
  • Choose a good quality olive oil for the dressing. The flavor of the oil will come through in the slaw, so it's important to use one that you enjoy.
  • Add some herbs or spices to the dressing for extra flavor. Some good options include thyme, oregano, basil, rosemary, garlic powder, or onion powder.
  • Let the slaw marinate for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the slaw chilled. This will help it stay crisp and refreshing.
