Martha Stewart's Four-Root Puree
Martha made this on the Today show with her honey mustard salmon see separate post. Very good and it would go with anything chicken or pork as well.
2½ pounds celeriac (1 very large or 2 smaller), peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
3 pounds russet potatoes or other starchy potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 large parsnip, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
4 large carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
kosher salt and freshly ground white pepper
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
Place each vegetable in its own pot.
Cover with water by 1 inch. Add 1 teaspoon salt to each pot.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until tender:
10 to 15 minutes for celeriac and potatoes;
10 to 12 minutes for parsnip and carrots.
Drain all the vegetables, reserving 1 cup of the potato cooking liquid.
Working in batches, puree the vegetablesin a food processor, adding the potato cooking liquid to create a smooth puree. Stir in the butter until the butter melts. Season with salt and white pepper. Serve hot. :
