• 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground

Directions

Step 1

Peel the celery root using a sharp knife or vegetable peeler, removing any tough outer skin.

Step 2

Rinse the celery root and pat it dry with a clean towel.

Step 3

Grate the celery root using a box grater or a food processor with a shredding attachment.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, toss the grated celery root with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to prevent discoloration.

In a separate bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, remaining 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, capers (if using), chopped parsley, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.

Step 6

Add the dressing to the grated celery root and mix thoroughly until the celery root is evenly coated.

Step 7

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or lemon juice as needed.

Step 8

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 9

Before serving, give the salad a final stir and transfer it to a serving platter or individual plates.

Step 10

Garnish with extra lemon slices and a sprinkle of chopped parsley, if desired.
