Uses:
Grown especially for its large, knobby root (ranging in size from an apple to a cantaloupe), Melissa’s Celery Root is a brown vegetable topped off by a cluster of leafy green stems. Since these stems and/or leaves are inedible, they are often removed before reaching the market. The heavy brown skin, once peeled away reveals a creamy white interior. The mild flavor of Melissa’s Celery Root is reminiscent of both celery and parsley and is enhanced when boiled, braised, sautéed or baked. Melissa’s Celery Root may also grated, julienned or shredded and added raw to salads.
Selection, Storage & Handling:
Celery Root from Melissa’s is hand-selected for excellent quality. Choose small to medium roots that are firm and clean. Avoid soft spots which indicate decay. Refrigerate unwashed in a plastic bag for up to a week or more.
