How to Make Celeriac Salad With Mustard Dressing

  1. Peel and dice 1 large celeriac (about 1.5 lbs) into ½-inch pieces. Immediately place the diced celeriac in a bowl of cold water with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to prevent browning.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together ¼ cup olive oil and 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard until emulsified.
  3. Add ½ cup mayonnaise and ⅓ cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt) and whisk until smooth and creamy.
  4. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add 1 tablespoon more Dijon mustard if you prefer a tangier dressing.
  5. If the dressing is too thick, thin it with 1-2 tablespoons of cream or milk.
  6. Drain the celeriac and add it to the dressing, gently tossing to coat.
  7. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or up to several days) to allow the flavors to meld and the celeriac to become tender.
  8. Serve chilled and enjoy!
