celeriac
Celeriac (also known as celery root) is a great source of vitamins C & K, B6 vitamins, potassium, and fiber. Celeriac can be enjoyed raw or cooked and has a similar flavor to celery. It is great in salads, purees, soups, and other dishes.

September through January

Since celeriac is a root, it should be stored in a cool, dark environment. Store in the coolest part of the refrigerator for up to 10 days. If it is wrapped in plastic, the celeriac can be stored there for several weeks.
-
Both roasted and pureed celeriac can be served to babies. A vegetable peeler is not strong enough to get through its tough skin, so use a knife to peel it instead.
