Number Of Ingredients 11

1/3 cup raw pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
1 teaspoon plus 1/4 cup olive oil
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

3 ounces Manchego cheese, shaved, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Toss pumpkin seeds and 1 tsp. oil on a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Bake until golden brown and puffed, about 5 minutes; let cool. Finely chop 2 Tbsp. pumpkin seeds.
  • Whisk chopped pumpkin seeds, lemon juice, mustard, maple syrup, and remaining 1/4 cup oil in a medium bowl; season dressing with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose the right celery root. Look for a celery root that is firm and heavy for its size. Avoid any celery roots that are soft or have blemishes.
  • Peel and chop the celery root. Use a sharp knife to peel the celery root, then chop it into small pieces.
  • Soak the celery root in cold water. This will help to remove some of the bitterness from the celery root.
  • Use a variety of pears. Different types of pears will give your slaw different flavors. Try using a combination of sweet and tart pears.
  • Add some crunch. To add some crunch to your slaw, add some chopped nuts or seeds. Walnuts, almonds, and sunflower seeds are all good choices.
  • Make a dressing that complements the flavors of the slaw. A simple vinaigrette is a good option, but you can also use a creamy dressing or a tangy dressing made with citrus juice.
  • Serve the slaw immediately or chill it for later. Celery root and pear slaw is best served fresh, but it can also be chilled for later. If you chill the slaw, be sure to bring it to room temperature before serving.

Conclusion:
