Celery Root With Mushrooms And Parmesan Recipes

CELERY ROOT-MUSHROOM LATKES

Steps:

• Whisk the sour cream with the chives, vinegar and a pinch of salt in a small bowl until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Grate the potato, celery root and onion on the large holes of a box grater into a colander set over a bowl. Add 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper, toss well and let stand 5 minutes. Squeeze handfuls of the mixture firmly with your hands to remove as much liquid as possible. Blot dry with paper towels, then transfer to a large bowl.
• Add the beaten egg, matzo meal or flour, mushrooms, thyme and garlic to the potato mixture and toss well to combine. Scoop 1/4 cupfuls of the mixture and tightly pack into thin 3- to 4-inch pancakes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet.
• Preheat the oven to 250˚. Heat 1/4 inch vegetable oil or chicken fat in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in three batches, fry the latkes until deep golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side, reducing the heat as needed if the latkes are browning too quickly. Remove to a rack set on a rimmed baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and more thyme. Keep warm in the oven while you make the remaining latkes. Serve with the chive sour cream.

BRAISED CELERY ROOT PURéE WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. In a small pot, bring 3 cups water to a boil. Remove from the heat, add the porcini and let sit for 30 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve set over a bowl and set aside. Rinse and chop the mushrooms.
• Fill a large bowl with cold water and add all but 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice. Peel, quarter and cut the celery root into 1/4-inch-thick slices and add to the water.
• Place a large, ovenproof pot over medium-high heat. Heat 1/4 cup of the oil, then add the leek, onion, garlic, thyme sprigs, bay leaf and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Sauté until the onions are translucent.
• Drain the celery root and add it to the onion mixture with the reserved mushroom broth and milk. Bring to a boil, cover tightly and transfer to the oven. Braise until the celery root is tender, about 40 minutes.
• Remove the bay leaf and thyme sprigs. Using a blender or immersion blender, carefully blend the mixture to a smooth purée. (For a finer texture, strain through a fine-mesh sieve.) Place the pot over low heat and simmer until it reaches the consistency of porridge. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the remaining 1/4 cup oil. Add the fresh mushrooms and sauté until the water releases and evaporates. Add the rehydrated porcini and chopped thyme. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
