    This dish requires a lot of preparation, but is worth it! I easily doubled the recipe for a large Thanksgiving gathering we hosted. I was only able to take the little bit left on the side of the pan, as it was gobbled up by everyone--of all ages. It was so yummy! It's also vegetarian and gluten-free. I'll make it again for Christmas Eve!

    I made this twice, once to test it and second time for my dish to bring at Thanksgiving dinner. It was huge hit! A few tips. Make sure pears are not ripe because when you slice them, they will turn in to mush. This dish takes a lot of prep. the second time I made it, I had everything prepped before cooking the celery root and potatoes because then it was just a matter of putting it all together. I wish someone would do a video of this recipe. It was amazing, though, a big crowd pleaser.

    This recipe was awesome. The only thing time consuming about it was all of the browning, but if you got two pans going at once you could do it quicker. I made this for Thanksgiving today and for a table of 5 people, each person could only have a VERY small serving. I would DOUBLE at least this recipe and use two pears. I loved this dish, but was very disappointed with the yield.

    Loved making this dish even though it's a bit more time consuming than others, but not hard. It was the hit of the meal! Will need to make a double batch next time.

    I thought this was one of the best gratin recipes I've ever made. It was very tasty, rich and fabulous. I made it for my husband and a friend of ours, and we all raved about how well it turned out. A few modifications that I will make next time: I'd use about 1/2 to a full cup more veggies. I would probably use the entire celery root and at least two pears. I also broiled it at the end to get a nice bubble on top. Quite easy, very tasty!
