Ingredients

2 celery roots (about 1 1/2 pounds each), peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
3 pounds baking potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 teaspoon salt, plus kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, for seasoning
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 tablespoon grated fresh or prepared horseradish
Chopped fresh chives, for garnish
Extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

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.

Tyler, you rock, man!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is delicious. I love celery root and the kick from the horseradish is an added bonus. Next time, I might even omit the... potato. Thanks, Tyler!Read more

Very good
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Paired nicely with the standing rib roast for Christmas Eve dinner. I had a hard time using the ricer for the celery root... and wound up using the masher, so the texture was not quite as smooth as I would have liked.Read more

Different and very good
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

It took searching three different stores to find celery root, but the end result was worthwhile. We made this for Christmas... dinner using prepared horseradish instead of fresh, and it was one of the big hits (along with the Apple dish from the same episode). The taste is really unique, with a mild and not over-powering celery flavor. We will definitely make this again.Read more
