- .RH MOD.RECIPES-SOURCE CELERY-SALAD SL "6 Feb 87" 1987
- .RZ "CELERY ROOT SALAD" "Cooked celery root in vinaigrette"
- This salad has an intense celery flavor.
- The taste is so strong that it should be served only with other strongly
- flavored foods. It would overwhelm veal, but would go well with a lamb roast.

- .SK 4
- Pour the dressing over the cooked celery root and toss. Refrigerate at least
- two hours before serving.
- .NX
- Celery root (also called celeriac) is sometimes hard to find. Try to get
- ones about the size of a large fist; smaller ones have too much waste, and
- bigger ones are often pithy. This vegetable is not worth eating raw.
- .SH RATING
- .I Difficulty:
- easy.
- .I Time:
