France Céléri Rémoulade (Celery Root Salad)
Céléri rémoulade is a simple salad that originated in Provence, France, in the 1930s. Since that time, the dish has become a staple of French crudité—or raw food—cuisine. Celery root, also known as celeriac, has a uniquely earthy taste only distantly related to the well-known watery green stalks of celery. Fresh, crisp, and starchy, celery root is the heart of this dish. Céléri rémoulade is simply prepared with julienned celeriac and a light but pungent mustard aioli.
