“Pity the poor celery root, or celeriac as the French call it. This baseball-sized root with brown knotted skin, hairy, gnarly roots crusted with dirt has no shelf appeal and is often ignored. It is truly one of Mother Nature's homeliest vegetables. On the upside, it also one of Mother Nature's tastiest vegetables.” [Gretchen and I have been looking for a low-carb potato substitute for quite some time now. This looks to be it. I just tried a raw slice and I'm sure that untrained taste buds would think it was a raw potato without the chalky texture. Amazing. I'll let y'all know the results. We're frying 'em up in olive oil.]
