Mashed Potatoes and Celery Root
2 lbs celery root
4 lbs potatoes
1/2 lb (2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 cup half-and-half
2 teaspoons salt
Freshly ground white pepper
Peel the celery root and cut into 3/4-inch cubes. Place in a bowl with cold water to cover and reserve. Put about 2 quarts water into a medium-size pot. Peel the potatoes and cut them into 3/4-inch cubes. As you finish each potato, drop the cubes into the pot.
When you have finished, adjust the amount of water so that the potatoes are covered by 2 inches of water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and bring to a boil. Boil the potatoes for 5 minutes, then add the drained celery root. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 12minutes, or till tender. Drain. Place the vegetables in a food porcessor fitted with the metal blade and puree for a few seconds, or use a potato ricer. Add the butter, half-and-half, the 2 teaspoons salt, and pepper to taste, then process for a few more seconds. Return the potatoes and celery root to the pot and stir over medium heat. Serve immediately.
