**Whipped Celery Potatoes: A Creamy, Savory Side Dish**
Whipped celery potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of main courses. They are made with mashed potatoes, celery, onion, and butter, and are seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. The potatoes are whipped until they are light and fluffy, and the celery and onion add a savory flavor. This dish can be made ahead of time and reheated, making it a great option for busy weeknights. It is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including potassium, vitamin C, and fiber. In addition to the classic whipped celery potatoes recipe, this article also includes variations such as roasted garlic whipped celery potatoes, cheesy whipped celery potatoes, and slow-cooker whipped celery potatoes. These variations offer different flavor profiles and cooking methods, so you can choose the recipe that best suits your taste and preferences.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a skillet over low heat and sauté the celery, onion, and garlic until vegetables are soft, about 7 minutes to 10 minutes.
- Add the half and half and bouillon and simmer the mixture slowly, uncovered, over low heat for 20 minutes.
- Whir the simmered mixture in a a blender or food processor until well pureed.
- While the celery mixture is simmering, cut the potatoes into 2-inch chunks (peeled or not, it's up to you) then put them in a stockpot with lightly salted water to cover and cook until the potatoes are tender; drain well.
- Combine the celery puree with the cooked potatoes in the stockpot and, over medium heat, mash with a hand masher, adding buttermilk to achieve desired consistency for the mashed potatoes.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Makes about 6 servings.
- Note: I do not recommend using electric mixers to make mashed potatoes because they can break down the starches in the potatoes too quickly and cause them to become"gluey"- use a hand masher, it's worth the extra bit of effort.

Steps:
- Prick the potatoes a few times with a fork and bake them in the middle of a preheated 375°F. oven for 1 hour. In a large skillet melt the butter over moderate heat, in it cook the celery and the garlic, covered, for 10 minutes, and cook the mixture, uncovered, stirring, for 10 minutes more, or until the celery is tender. Transfer the mixture to a food processor and purée it. Peel the baked potatoes and force them through a ricer into a bowl. (Alternatively, the potatoes may be mashed with a potato masher.) Stir in the celery purée, salt and pepper to taste, and enough of the milk to reach the desired consistency. The mashed celery potatoes may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled.
CELERY ROOT MASH
Steps:
- Peel and roughly chop 3 pounds celery root. Place in a pot and cover with equal parts milk and water (about 2 1/2 cups each); add a pinch of salt. Bring to a simmer and cook until soft, 20 to 25 minutes; drain. Puree with 1/3 cup heavy cream and 2 tablespoons butter. Season with salt, then add 2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard and pulse to combine.
- TIP: Use a food processor or immersion blender to puree these veggies-they're too fibrous for a potato masher.
CELERY ROOT AND POTATO PUREE
Steps:
- Place the potatoes in a pot large enough to accommodate the celery root and the potatoes. Add enough water to cover the vegetables by 2 inches and season generously with salt. Bring to a boil and cook for about 10 minutes. Add the celery root and cook until both vegetables are fork tender. Strain the celery root and potatoes.
- Pour the cream in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, pass the celery root and potatoes through a food mill into a large bowl. Add one-quarter of the hot cream and 2 pats of the butter. Stir vigorously until the cream and butter are thoroughly combined. Repeat for the remaining cream and butter. Taste for seasoning, you will probably have to add salt. Serve in a warm serving bowl immediately or keep warm until ready to use.
CREAMY CELERY ROOT MASH
This is a delicious and quick way to prepare a root veggie that isn't often talked about. Celeriac has a slightly tangy taste that is reminiscent of celery, but much subtler and has a fabulous flavor. Delicious!

MASHED POTATOES WITH CELERY ROOT
I first had these potatoes at a restaurant and they "knocked my socks off." Celeriac (or celery root) is a ugly root, that when baked up becomes quite creamy. The flavor is similar to celery stalk with a sweet undercurrent. This version is from Andrew Schloss's, author of "Dinner's Ready" clipped from the Washington Post 1996.

Steps:
- Place the potatoes and celery root in a large heavy saucepan.
- (I start the celery root first, since I find it takes longer to cook. It must be soft to mash up creamy).
- Cover with water and season liberally with salt and pepper.
- Cover and cook over medium-high heat until water boils.
- Reduce the heat to medium and continue to boil until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Drain, and mash the vegetables with a potato masher or a large fork.
- Mix in cream.
- Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper.
