Number Of Ingredients 6

4 pounds Yukon gold potatoes
1 pound celery root
1 cup heavy cream
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Peel potatoes, and cut into 1-inch pieces. Peel celery root using a paring knife, following the shape of the root. Cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Place potatoes and celery root in a small stockpot with enough water to cover, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to a simmer, and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, return to pot; place over low heat to dry out.
  • Combine cream, butter, salt, and pepper in a small saucepan, and place over medium heat until butter is melted and mixture comes to a simmer. Pour over potato mixture, and combine, using a potato masher, until fluffy and smooth.
