German Celery Root Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Combine celeriac pieces, water, and 1 tablespoon salt in a saucepan, bring to a boil and cook until celeriac is soft, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain, reserving cooking liquid, and set aside to cool, about 1 hour. Cube celeriac and place in a bowl with onion.
• Stir together cooled cooking liquid, vinegar, and sugar. Pour over celeriac and onion. Add oil and mix well. Season with salt.

Steps:

• Celery root is tough to work with, so have a good knife on hand when peeling and cutting. Grate the celery root and apple in a large bowl. In a separate bowl mix together the remaining ingredients and pour over the prepared celery root and apple. Toss all ingredients until well incorporated. Chill for at least one hour before serving. Refrigerate any remaining salad.

Steps:

• Fill a bowl with ice water; add half of the lemon juice and 1 tablespoon salt. Peel the celery root with a paring knife. Rinse, then cut into matchsticks. Add to the lemon water and let soak 15 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
• Whisk the remaining lemon juice, the mustard, vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl; gradually whisk in the olive oil, then the cream. Add the celery root and toss; cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Arrange the frisee and radicchio on a platter. Top with the celery root mixture.

Steps:

• Peel and quarter celery root. Place in a pot of lightly salted water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and set aside until cool enough to handle. Cut into slices and place into a salad bowl.
• Combine oil, lemon juice, vinegar, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Pour dressing over celery root. Allow to marinate for at least 2 hours to intensify flavors.

Steps:

• Put the celery root in a large saucepan with cold water to cover, and heat to a boil. Lower the heat a bit, and simmer the celery root for about an hour or so, until cooked through and tender. As it cooks, keep the root submerged by weighting it with a plate or pot lid. When you can easily pierce the celery root with a skewer, drain it in a colander and cool.
• To peel the celery root: scrape off the skin with the dull side of a paring knife, and cut out the bits of skin in the folds and any tough, knobby parts. Cut the celery root in half, and slice each half into thin half-moons; put these in the large bowl. (If the celery root is a bit fibrous, cut the slices into thin matchsticks.)
• Rinse the apples well, but don't peel them. Slice them in half, through the stem and bottom ends, and cut out the seeds and cores. Slice the halves crosswise into half-moons, about 1/8 inch thick, add to the bowl, and gently toss the celery root and apple slices together.
• For the dressing: whisk together the vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper in a small bowl, then whisk in the olive oil gradually, until smooth and emulsified. Pour the dressing over the celery root and apple, sprinkle the chives on top, and tumble to coat all the slices with dressing.
• Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Scrub the celery root and cook it in salted water until tender, which may take anywhere from 20 minutes to 2 hours, depending upon the age of the root. When tender, cool, peel and slice into small julienne strips. Add onion juice, mustard and cream to the French dressing. Beat well. Let the celery root chill in this for several hours. If it absorbs all the marinade, add more to moisten. Serve sprinkled with the parsley, chervil and riced egg.

Steps:

• Place celery root in a 2 1/2-quart souffle dish with a lid. Add water and cover. Holding the lid down with your thumbs, shake the dish to distribute the water evenly. Cook, covered, at 100 percent power in a high-power microwave oven for 8 minutes. Strain celery root and run under cold water until vegetables are cool.
• Put mustard in a bowl and whisk in vinegar. Gradually whisk in oil, beginning with drops and increasing to a steady stream. Add parsley and season with salt and pepper. Whisk again and toss in celery root.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, cornichons, capers, and mustard. Season with salt and pepper. Blend until well combined. Fold in tarragon and parsley; set aside.
• Slice celeriac, using a Japanese mandoline fitted with the julienne blade, into 1/8-inch-thick strips into a large bowl. Add mayonnaise mixture, and toss to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
