Celery Root and Carrot Remoulade
Toss this fresh-tasting salad with remoulade, a mayonnaise-based dressing that includes mustard, capers and herbs. Use store-bought mayonnaise or, if you prefer, homemade aioli; if you make your own aioli, you might not need all of the lemon juice called for here. Any leftover remoulade is delicious spread on sandwiches or combined with chicken salad.
