Time 30m

Yield Six to eight servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 medium celery roots (each weighing about 1 pound), peeled and cubed into about 1/2-inch squares
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons heavy cream
Salt to taste

Steps:

  • Place the celery root in a baking dish, dot with the butter and cover. Microwave at high - stirring once -until the celery root is soft and gives no resistance when pierced with a fork, about 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Transfer the celery root to the bowl of a food processor. Add the cream and process until smooth. Taste for seasoning. (This can be prepared ahead earlier in the day and reheated.)

This was a delicious and easy recipe! I made it for a dinner party and everyone loved it. The celery root puree was smooth and creamy, and the apple and onion added a nice sweetness and crunch. I will definitely be making this again.

This puree was a bit bland for my taste. I added some additional salt and pepper, and it was much better. I also think it would be good with some grated Parmesan cheese on top.

I love celery root, and this puree was a great way to use it. It was simple to make and had a lot of flavor. I served it with roasted chicken and it was a perfect accompaniment.
