Is it a salad or is it a coleslaw? Either way, don’t judge this odd-shaped root vegetable from the outside, because it is actually one of the best vegetables for cooking or eating raw.
Celery root has a slight celery flavor, tastes a bit nutty, has a long shelf-life, is low in calories and high in a number of nutrients, like vitamin K.
