Mashed Celery Root And Potatoes Recipes

MASHED POTATOES WITH CELERY ROOT

Steps:

• Place the potatoes and celery root in a large heavy saucepan.
• (I start the celery root first, since I find it takes longer to cook. It must be soft to mash up creamy).
• Cover with water and season liberally with salt and pepper.
• Cover and cook over medium-high heat until water boils.
• Reduce the heat to medium and continue to boil until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
• Drain, and mash the vegetables with a potato masher or a large fork.
• Mix in cream.
• Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper.

CELERY ROOT AND POTATO MASH WITH HORSERADISH

Steps:

• Place the celery root and potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water; add a teaspoon of salt. Bring to boil over medium heat and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, until the celery root and potatoes are very tender. Drain the water from the vegetables and pass them through a food mill or a ricer into a large mixing bowl. Stir in the cream, butter, and horseradish until the cream is absorbed and the mixture is smooth. Season with kosher salt and pepper and garnish with chopped chives. Drizzle with a healthy dose of olive oil and serve.

CELERY ROOT AND POTATO PUREE

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a pot large enough to accommodate the celery root and the potatoes. Add enough water to cover the vegetables by 2 inches and season generously with salt. Bring to a boil and cook for about 10 minutes. Add the celery root and cook until both vegetables are fork tender. Strain the celery root and potatoes.
• Pour the cream in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, pass the celery root and potatoes through a food mill into a large bowl. Add one-quarter of the hot cream and 2 pats of the butter. Stir vigorously until the cream and butter are thoroughly combined. Repeat for the remaining cream and butter. Taste for seasoning, you will probably have to add salt. Serve in a warm serving bowl immediately or keep warm until ready to use.

• Melt the butter in a skillet over low heat and sauté the celery, onion, and garlic until vegetables are soft, about 7 minutes to 10 minutes.
• Add the half and half and bouillon and simmer the mixture slowly, uncovered, over low heat for 20 minutes.
• Whir the simmered mixture in a a blender or food processor until well pureed.
• While the celery mixture is simmering, cut the potatoes into 2-inch chunks (peeled or not, it's up to you) then put them in a stockpot with lightly salted water to cover and cook until the potatoes are tender; drain well.
• Combine the celery puree with the cooked potatoes in the stockpot and, over medium heat, mash with a hand masher, adding buttermilk to achieve desired consistency for the mashed potatoes.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Makes about 6 servings.
• Note: I do not recommend using electric mixers to make mashed potatoes because they can break down the starches in the potatoes too quickly and cause them to become"gluey"- use a hand masher, it's worth the extra bit of effort.
