PARSNIP AND CELERY ROOT MASH



Parsnip and Celery Root Mash image

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.

Celery Root-Parsnip Latkes image

Noah Bernamoff serves his classic latkes at Mile End Deli in Brooklyn all year long. At Hanukkah, he breaks out the variations. Celery root and parsnip replace potato in this version, the sweetness of the parsnips tempered by the grassiness of the celery root. Mr. Bernamoff suggests topping these with horseradish cream.
