Celeriacgratinwithbluecheeseandbacon Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the blue cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, salt, and pepper until well combined.
• Pick the celery leaves and set aside. Thinly slice the celery stalks on the bias and add both the celery and the leaves to the dressing and toss to coat. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Peel and cut the celeriac into roughly 1-inch/2.5 cm pieces. Put the milk, lemon juice, and bay leaf in a large pot, pour over 8-cups/2 liters water. Add the salt, bring to a boil, and simmer until the celeriac is very tender.
• Drain, reserving 1 cup/250 ml of the liquid. Remove the bay leaf. Stir the butter and cream into the celeriac, then puree until very smooth in a blender, adding as much of the reserved cooking liquid as needed to achieve a soft, smooth consistency. Season with pepper and salt, and serve.

Steps:

• Cut the celery crosswise into 1/2" thick pieces to make 4 cups sliced.
• Place it in a pretty bowl and sprinkle in crumbled blue cheese.
• Add the salt, pepper, and olive oil and toss well.
• Serve chilled. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Peel the celeriac, keeping it as round as possible. Make a slight indent using a 6-7cm biscuit cutter in the top of the celeriac or score using a knife. Use the indent as a guide to hollow out the middle with a melon baller or apple corer until you're halfway down.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. In a bowl, toss the walnuts, thyme and blue cheese together, then pack into the cavity - don't worry if the filling sticks out of the top. Next, lay out a sheet of tin foil large enough to cover the celeriac. Put the celeriac in the middle, dot the butter on top and around it, then drizzle with honey and sprinkle with salt. Wrap the celeriac in the foil, making sure there are no gaps, and roast for 1 hr 15 mins or until soft. Once cooked, open the foil and roast for a further 15 mins until golden. Serve the celeriac on a chopping board and reserve the juices in a dish to spoon over.

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 200°C.
• Layer the potatoes and celeriac in a buttered gratin dish with the garlic, seasoning with salt and pepper as you go.
• Pour in enough hot stock to come up nearly to level of the top layer.
• Cover with greaseproof paper and bake for 45 minutes.
• Mix the creme fraiche and mustards in a bowl.
• Spread over the top of the gratin. Return to the oven and bake for another 10-15 minutes until the celeriac and potatoes are tender. (Do not add the cream mixture before step 6, as mustard turns bitter when cooked for too long).

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350.
• Thoroughly wash whole celeriac and pat dry; brush the outside with olive oil, sprinkle liberally with coarse salt and bake for 1 to 2 hours (for celeriac, longer is better; many vegetables will be done sooner), until the outside is roasted and evenly crisp and the inside is tender.
• Remove from the oven, cut up if you like (you can also sprinkle with more oil and salt) and serve. (Yes, you can eat the skin.)
