Celery-Root Remoulade
- 1 pound celery root (also called celeriac), peeled
- 2 carrots, peeled
- 1 green apple (optional)
- 1 tablespoon salt, plus more to taste
- 3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup light olive oil
- Freshly ground pepper to taste
- Cut the celery root, carrots, and the optional apple into julienne matchsticks.
- The best way to do this is to use a julienne disk on a food processor.
- Work quickly, so the celeriac doesnt change color.
- Toss the sticks in a large bowl with 1 tablespoon salt and 3 tablespoons lemon juice.
- Add enough cold water to the bowl just to cover the mixture, and let it steep for 30 minutes.
- Drain, and discard the water.
- Using a food processor fitted with a steel blade, pulse together the egg, the remaining 1 teaspoon lemon juice, and the mustard.
- With the motor running, slowly stream in the oils.
- When you finish pouring in the oil, you should have a thick, yellowish mayonnaise.
- Season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
- Put the celery root, carrots, and apple together with 2 heaping tablespoons of your prepared mayonnaise into a large bowl, and fold together.
- Cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- This tends to taste best when it sits for a day or two in the refrigerator.
