Instructions

  1. Split the celery head in half. Trim the remaining roots at the top, and peel off the outer skin with a peeler. Grate 7 ounces celeriac finely using a grater.
  2. Peel and finely grate 1 medium carrot. Peel and core ½ medium apple and grate it coarsely (large holes) for a better texture.
  3. Place grated celeriac, carrot, and apple in a bowl. Add 2 Tablespoons mayonaisse, 4 Tablespoons white yogurtor sour cream). Season with 1 Tablespoon lemon juice, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper. Mix well, and let it chill in the refrigerator for about ten minutes.
  4. Top the celery spread on the bread slices in a generous layer and garnish with chopped green scallions for added flavor and a nice display.

Notes

  • The basic recipe makes 4 portions.
  • The best breads for this spread are Czech Chleba rye bread, Veka white bread, Housky braided rolls, or Rohlíky rolls. A French baguette is also an excellent choice.
  • STORAGE: Store the spread in the refrigerator covered with plastic wrap, where it will keep for about 4-5 days. On the second day, you may notice some released liquid on the surface, which is nothing to worry about; just stir the spread well.
  • Before serving, let the spread sit on the kitchen counter at room temperature for at least half an hour.
  • How do you enhance this celery bread spread? Add finely chopped hard-boiled eggs or grated hard cheese (in the Czech Republic, we often use semi-hard Dutch cheese such as Gouda or Edam). If you like garlic, one or two mashed cloves will take the spread to a new level of flavor.
