What a great way to use the kohlrabi and celery root from my CSA! Which usually ends up in the back of the fridge for a couple of months:-) Thank you Martha Rose Shulman. Tasty!

Delicious version of a comfort food from my childhood. The version at Thanksgivings of my youth involved rutabaga and potato (which I highly recommend to CSA folk). I always go heavy on butter because butter.

This is one of our favourites. I even prefer it over mashed potatoes! I find used a hand blender is the easiest way to mash everything together.

Nice and light but still very satisfying. I only had celery root so I only used celery root. The yogurt added some needed creaminess since I didn’t have any potato. I didn’t add butter and it didn’t need it.
