Celery Root Arugula Salad Recipes

CELERY ROOT SALAD WITH ARUGULA AND PECANS

Steps:

• To make the mustard vinaigrette, use a mortar and pestle or the flat side of a knife to smash the garlic and a tiny pinch of salt to make a paste. Whisk the paste in a small bowl with the mustard, vinegar and remaining salt. Whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in the oil until fully incorporated. Season with pepper.
• To make the salad, fit a food processor with a large grating blade; grate the celery root. (You can also use a box grater, though beware your knuckles.) Transfer to a large bowl and add the arugula and pecans. Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and toss well. Season with more salt, vinegar and olive oil if needed before serving.

CELERY ROOT SALAD

Steps:

• Fill a bowl with ice water; add half of the lemon juice and 1 tablespoon salt. Peel the celery root with a paring knife. Rinse, then cut into matchsticks. Add to the lemon water and let soak 15 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
• Whisk the remaining lemon juice, the mustard, vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl; gradually whisk in the olive oil, then the cream. Add the celery root and toss; cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Arrange the frisee and radicchio on a platter. Top with the celery root mixture.

ARUGULA AND FENNEL SALAD

Steps:

• Trim the fennel bulb and reserve the fronds. Cut the bulb in half and remove the tough inner core. Using a sharp knife or a mandolin cut the fennel into very thin slices and put them into a large bowl. Cut the onion into very thin slices and add them to the bowl. Add the arugula to the bowl and give it a good toss. Pour in the olive oil and lemon juice, season it with salt and pepper, and toss it again to coat all the ingredients; put the salad onto a large platter. Using a vegetable peeler, shave thin pieces of the Parmigiano-Reggiano and scatter them over the salad. Garnish with the reserved fennel fronds.

CELERY ROOT SALAD

Steps:

• Scrub the celery root and cook it in salted water until tender, which may take anywhere from 20 minutes to 2 hours, depending upon the age of the root. When tender, cool, peel and slice into small julienne strips. Add onion juice, mustard and cream to the French dressing. Beat well. Let the celery root chill in this for several hours. If it absorbs all the marinade, add more to moisten. Serve sprinkled with the parsley, chervil and riced egg.

Steps:

• Put lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Whisking constantly, pour in oil in a slow, steady stream; whisk until emulsified. Add arugula and onion; toss.

Steps:

• Just before serving, toss the salad with the dressing. Garnish with the tomato wedges and serve.
