CELERY ROOT MASH
Steps:
- Peel and roughly chop 3 pounds celery root. Place in a pot and cover with equal parts milk and water (about 2 1/2 cups each); add a pinch of salt. Bring to a simmer and cook until soft, 20 to 25 minutes; drain. Puree with 1/3 cup heavy cream and 2 tablespoons butter. Season with salt, then add 2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard and pulse to combine.
- TIP: Use a food processor or immersion blender to puree these veggies-they're too fibrous for a potato masher.
PARSNIP AND CELERY ROOT MASH
These are two vegetables that are usually dead cheap at the market, but not enough people know what to do with them. The parsnips can be peeled and cut just like carrots, but the tough skin and larger size of the celery root (aka celeraic) requires a big knife. This is a favourite in my home, where we serve it as a substitute for mashed potatoes. I like a coarse mash and use a regular potato masher, but you can use a stick blender for a smoother purée.
