  2. Cook celeriac: Bring to a gentle boil and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes or until the vegetables are soft.
  3. Drain but reserve the liquid. Add about ¼ cup of the cooking liquid to the vegetables.

Notes

  • Celeriac, also known as celery root, cannot be replaced with celery stalks in this recipe.
  • Butter: You can use salted butter as well; adjust the salt amount accordingly.
  • Dairy: For a milder taste, the sour cream can be replaced with about 5 tablespoons of heavy cream. In this case, add only a little of the cooking liquid when you blend the cooked celeriac and add more as required. You can also substitute the sour cream with creme fraiche or full-fat cream cheese.
