[slinky.kate]

Its an ugly brute,isnt it.i am using it to make celeriac soup,never tasted it,so keeping my fingers crossed.

[Captain2]

Awesome for me when roasted with your spuds

[AlwaysConfused]

I haven't had celeriac for years. I used to enjoy celeriac fries and also creamy mash. Mmm, got my tastebuds going now!

[patsyann]

Yummy.

[MargoTester]

Captain - I always parboil my spuds prior to roasting, would you do that with celeriac?

[Captain2]

Margo - no we don't parboil as they are softer to start with - just lump them in.

[boxtops]

Absolutely delicious. We roast pork on a bed of sliced celeriac and apples = yummy.

It's a nutty taste, kate.

[Fusion5]

What does it taste of ?

[MargoTester]

Captain - I have never eaten celeriac but always wanted to try it, this seems like a good way to stArt, thanks.

[slinky.kate]

well'i love my nuts'so the taste will be fine boxtops.

[boxtops]

I wouldn't eat it on its own, personally - celeriac mash is good.

[ummmm]

It tastes like celery.

[ethandron]

I don't think it tastes nutty. It's like mild celery but with the texture of sweet potato. I really like it.

[Captain2]

I agree with ummmm regarding the taste

[slinky.kate]

I will let you know how it tastes.

[boxtops]

Erm, I think celery tastes nutty too - proves we are all individual - but I guess the clue is in the name - celeri(ac)

[Fusion5]

Thanks ummmm sounds lush, I will give it a go.

[ummmm]

It's disgusting....lol

[EcclesCake]

Celeriac makes glorious soup. Blitzed you get get a really silky smooth soup.

[jourdain2]

Delicious - a bit fibrous sometimes - roast or mash.... yum!
