The Creations


Celery Root-Chestnut Mash with Herbed Beets

With the use of Melissa's Peeled & Steamed Baby Beets and Peeled & Steamed Chestnuts, this sidedish was a snap to make.

Ingredients

Mash
  • 1 celery root, peeled and cubed (approximately 3 C)
  • water
  • 1 package Melissa's Peeled & Steamed Chestnuts (approximately 2 C chestnuts)
  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
  • 1/4 C chicken stock
  • 2 T butter
  • freshly ground salt
  • freshly ground pepper
  • Also needed: food processor or immersion blender
Topping
  • 1 package Melissa's Peeled & Steamed Baby Beets (approximately 2 C beets), quartered
  • 1 T olive oil
  • 1 t balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 C fresh parsley, chopped

Procedure
Place celery root in a pan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until fork tender, approximately 20 minutes. Drain and set aside. In batches, process cooked celery root and chestnuts in the bowl of a food processor or with an immersion blender. Add in garlic and butter. Pour in chicken stock and pulse until desired texture. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

In a medium mixing bowl, toss together topping ingredients. Set aside until ready to serve.

To serve, spoon celery root-chestnut mash into a serving platter. Top with beets. And serve immediately.

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here. And there won't be a Twitter chat for this event, so you will have to dive into the articles themselves to read about our pairings and findings. Here's the line-up...

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

By
If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients  makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce...
