Celery Root RemouladeA Contemporary Version
- the juice of half a lemon
- celery root about 1 pound (500g)
- a raw medium beet
- creme fraiche 4 heaping tablespoons
- whole-grain mustard 2 teaspoons
- a little olive or walnut oil
- parsley a small handful of leaves
- walnut halves a scattering
- Squeeze the lemon into a bowl.
- Peel the celery root, then grate it coarsely.
- A food processor with the coarse grater attachment is easier than trying to do it by hand.
- Put into a bowl and toss gently with the lemon juice to keep it from discoloring.
- Grate the beet and add it to the celery root, but dont mix it up just yet.
- Put the creme fraiche in a small bowl, and stir in the mustard and a little salt and black pepper.
- Gently mix in enough oil to make a coating consistencyprobably about 2 or 3 tablespoons.
- Coarsely chop the parsley leaves and add to the dressing.
- Mix gently with a small whisk or fork, then fold into the shredded vegetables, mixing only lightly, so that the beet doesnt send everything pink.
- Toast the walnuts lightly in a small, nonstick frying pan, then scatter them over the salad.
