Preparing celeriac is simple, using a small sharp knife peel the rough skin of the celeriac and cut the flesh into desired-sized pieces. Once cut, immediately plunge the celeriac into a bowl of cold water with lemon juice to prevent discolouration. Drain and dry celeriac before use.
What I like best about it is that you can puree it in a food processor, unlike potatoes, making it really easy to make a creamy mash. Just boil or steam it first, drain well and then process with butter, warm milk or cream and salt and pepper.
If you need a celeriac recipe you can try making my Chicken pie with celeriac mash this weekend!
