I was looking for an authentic recipe of céleri rémoulade when I came across this one! More authentic than can be: it took me back to my early years in Paris! It's delicious, a more pungent version of cole slaw, a bit tricky to peel and shred, but worth all the effort. Thanks, Moira Hodgson.
You need to peel the celeriac and rub it with lemon to stop it going brown. Grate it coarsely, adding more lemon to keep its colour. You should use white pepper (white pepper is used so you can’t see it. Add the dijonaisse to the celarías, not the other way round. Work it through with your (clean) hands. It should be lightly coated, not drowning.
