Default Experimenting with Celery Root

Typically, when purchasing celery root, i steam it with a head of garlic
and do a mash as a potato mash alternative.

Last night, I experimented a bit by shaving a slice of the root with a
vegetable peeler and, after chopping it down to pieces added it to my
dinner salad. The mild celery flavor really added a pleasurable
dimension to the salad.

Has anyone tried experimenting with celery root?

I've never eaten it. I've been told it tastes like potatoes when mashed.
Does it?

No it doesn't, but the consistency certainly can.

It has a unique flavor which i find delicious. It's not for everyone
though. My wife doesn't really dig it but will eat it when I serve it.
Our dinner guests in the past have enjoyed it.

I do find that it is really wet when mashed, and then return it to the
heat to dry it out a bit. I have another thread discussing it. this one
was created by mistake.
