• Parboil the potatoes for 5 minutes; drain and pat dry; parboil celery root for 3 minutes; drain and pat dry.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Lightly oil a shallow wide baking dish (gratin dish) which will accommodate the 2 layers of potatoes and celery root.
• Spread a third of the tomato mixture in the bottom of the dish and top with alternating slices of parboiled celery root and potatoes; season carefully with salt and pepper. Top with tomato sauce, then layer potatoes and celery root and cover with sauce.

• Halve or quarter celery root to fit slicer. Thinly slice potatoes and celery root (about 1/8-inch thick) with slicer. Layer one third of potatoes and celery root in buttered baking dish.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400° F. Mix salt, pepper and nutmeg in small bowl. Sprinkle half of shallots in 16-cup oval gratin dish or 15x10x2-inch glass baking dish. Top with half of celery root and half of potatoes. Sprinkle half of spice mixture over. Repeat layering with remaining shallots, celery root, potatoes and spice mixture. Bring cream and broth to simmer in medium saucepan. Pour over vegetables. Cover tightly with foil.
• Bake until vegetables are almost tender, about 45 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 450° F. Press potatoes with spatula to even thickness. Bake uncovered until juices thicken, about 10 minutes. Top with cheese. Bake until cheese melts and browns, about 15 minutes. Cool 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit/180 degrees Celsius.
• Add 2 tablespoons/30 grams of butter and all the oil to a medium (10-inch/26-centimeter) ovenproof sauté pan over medium-high heat. Once melted, add the onions and 1/2 teaspoon salt, turn the heat down to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened and have taken on a light coloring, about 15 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme leaves, and cook for another 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fragrant. Stir in the miso and wine, and cook until liquid is reduced by half, about 4 more minutes. Remove from the heat.
• In a large bowl, very gently toss together celery root (celeriac), potatoes and flour with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a generous grind of pepper. Stir in the onion mixture to coat, then transfer everything back into the skillet, piling the vegetables haphazardly, so that the batons are pointing in different directions. Pour in the stock. Lightly grease a piece of foil with a little oil, then tightly cover the pan (oiled side down) and bake for 1 hour, or until the vegetables have cooked through.
• Remove the foil, and turn the oven temperature up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit/210 degrees Celsius. Sprinkle over the Gruyère and return the dish to the oven for 30 minutes, or until nicely browned on top, rotating the dish halfway. Leave to settle for at least 20 minutes while you make the brown butter (beurre noisette).
• Add the remaining butter and the thyme sprigs to a small saucepan, and place it over medium heat. Once melted, cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until it starts to smell nutty (add more or less time if necessary). Add the capers (carefully, as they might spit) and cook for 4 more minutes, or until they darken and burst. Off the heat, stir 1 tablespoon lemon juice from 1 lemon, chives and another good grind of pepper.
• Pour the caper brown butter all over the top of the gratin and serve warm, with the remaining lemon sliced into wedges to squeeze alongside.

Steps:

• Trim and peel celery root. Cut in three-fourth-inch cubes, placing them in a bowl of water as you proceed.
• Combine in saucepan with broth, milk, water, savory and one teaspoon salt; liquid should not quite cover. Gently simmer, covered, until barely tender -- about 10 minutes.
• With a slotted spoon transfer cubes to buttered shallow baking dish of one-and-a-half quart capacity. Strain and reserve liquid. Heat butter in rinsed-out saucepan. Add flour; stir on low heat until golden. Add one-and-a-half cups cooking liquid. Whisk over moderate heat until liquid boils.
• Sprinkle nutmeg on celery root. Season sauce with salt and pepper to taste; pour over cubes. Sprinkle cheese to cover evenly. Bake in center of preheated 350-degree oven for about 35 minutes, until lightly browned and bubbly.
