Preparation

  1. Peel the celery root and cut out any deep brown grooves. Grate coarsely using a hand grater or food processor. Place in a bowl of cold water and add the lemon juice. Allow to sit for 10 minutes. Drain, place in a towel and squeeze out excess moisture.
  2. To make the sauce, place all the ingredients except the oils, lemon juice and salt and pepper in a food processor. Blend until very frothy, then slowly drizzle in the oils, with the machine still running, until well blended. Add 1 tablespoon lemon juice, taste and then gradually add enough more to make the sauce piquant but not too acidic. Adjust the salt and pepper.
  3. Toss the celery root with 1 cup remoulade sauce. Add more as needed to coat the celery root and make it juicy. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with parsley.
