I bought celery root out of curiosity and then had to find a recipe to go with it. I'm glad I chose this one. I trimmed down the calories by only using 1 tbsp of butter instead of 2 and used almond milk instead of cream and it was still so rich and creamy that I don't miss the fat. I didn't have any scallions on hand so I don't know how that would add to the flavor.
Now all I need to make for a really fancy dinner at home is a fresh salad and a nice steak. I will totally be making this recipe again.
