    Someone did a celeriac salad that looked like a coleslaw on masterchef last night (though he didn't win).

    Hi MRSTITTLEMOUSE,

    There are some great ideas on this thread so I've added to the main celeriac thread to keep the suggestions together.

    Sweat:
    1 tbsp olive oil
    1 large onion finely chopped
    1 medium head celery very finely sliced (to remove the need to string it!)
    2 large cloves garlic finely chopped (optional)
    When softened add
    1 glass white wine to deglaze the pan
    When wine has boiled add
    1 medium celeriac diced
    Stock to cover (marigold bouillon is best imho)
    Simmer until celeriac is softened
    Blend til smooth
    Serve garnished with crumbled stilton and freshly ground black pepper

    Celeriac and Stilton soup is really nice.

    Hi Determined. I too have got a tin of the stuff sat on my kitchen work top and am going to open it (when I summon the courage!) and see if it is ok for portioning up and sticking in the freezer for use when required. If not then it'll be a huge cauldron of soup portioned up and stuck in the freezer!

    What was your plan for 5kg of celeriac when you ordered it? I ask because we have a lot of posters asking "what shall I do with what I just got from Approved Foods" :D

    I'd ad it to mash. I often put celeriac into roasted roots, but suspect tinned celeriac may be too soft for this.
