Celery Root French Fries With Remoulade Dipping Sauce Recipes

CELERY ROOT REMOULADE

Steps:

• Use a serrated knife to peel the celery root of all the brown outer portions, like peeling a pineapple. Cut the celery root into thin matchsticks with a mandoline, or grate them in a food processor fitted with the coarsest grating blade. With the food processor, press a little as you feed the chunks through and you will have larger shreds. Place the celery root in a large bowl, sprinkle with 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and allow to stand at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk together the mayonnaise, the 2 mustards, the remaining tablespoon of lemon juice, the vinegar, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and the pepper. Add enough sauce to lightly moisten the salad. (You may have some sauce left over.) Serve cold or at room temperature.

CELERY REMOULADE

Steps:

• In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, mustard and creme fraiche. Set aside.
• Brush excess dirt off of the roots. Cut off the bottom and top of the roots. Cut the roots into quarters and peel. Rinse in cool water if there is any remaining dirt or debris. Slice each quarter on a mandoline into 1-inch long matchstick pieces and transfer directly to the dressing. Add the salt and pepper and stir well to combine. Cover and place in the refrigerator for a minimum of 1 hour and up to 3 before serving.
