Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h45m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 medium beets
1 lb celery root
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice, plus additional to taste
2 tablespoons shallots, minced
1/4 cup olive oil
3/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste as I used much less)
1/2 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Wrap beets tightly in foil to make 2 packages (3 beets in each) and roast until tender, about 1 1/4 hours.
  • While beets roast, peel celery root with a sharp knife and cut into 1/8-inch-thick matchsticks. Whisk together lemon juice, shallot, oil, salt, and pepper to taste in a large bowl until combined well, then add celery root and toss until coated. Keep at room temperature, covered, until ready to add beets.
  • Carefully unwrap beets and, when just cool enough to handle, slip off skins. Cut beets into 1/8-inch-thick matchsticks and toss with celery root.
  • Let salad stand, covered, at room temperature 1 hour. Taste salad and season with more lemon juice and salt if necessary, then toss with walnuts.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the dressing.
