Default Celery Root Redux

After reading the post about celery root as a mashed potato sub, I got the
idea for Celery Root Gratin. It was great. Pared the celery root, sliced 1/4
inch rounds, layered in a buttered baking dish like fallen dominoes. Poured
in cream to cover halfway. Salt and pepper. Baked at 400 for about 45
minutes until the celeriac was tender and the cream had reduced. Added some
cheese on top for the last ten minutes. Phenomenal. Truly tasted like Potato
Gratin.

Excellent, glad to see celery root worked for you too. I'll have to
try your idea, sounds very good. Now, if somebody can just figure out
how to make the damn things smoother and easier to peel so a third of
it doesn't go to waste....


Hmmmmm...I've never tried peeling one, but I'm thinking...belt sander?
