    Celeriac is good raw grated in salads or make a coleslaw type salad using mayo. In Denmark they slice it thinly, coat in egg & breadcrumbs and fry.

    The green leafy sounds like chard to me - treat as spinach and you can use the stalks too :)
    Putting these winter preps here so I don't forget!
