Description

This sophisticated salad transforms humble celery root into a delicate, refreshing dish that balances earthy and peppery notes. The paper-thin slices of raw celery root provide a satisfying crunch, while the arugula adds a vibrant, spicy kick. Parmigiano-Reggiano introduces a salty, nutty depth that complements the vegetables perfectly. For an ultimate touch of luxury, fresh truffles or porcini mushrooms add an intense, aromatic umami flavor. Ideal for a light lunch, a starter for a dinner party, or a healthy side dish, this recipe requires no cooking, allowing the natural textures and flavors to shine. It is a simple yet impressive way to showcase high-quality ingredients with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Peel the celery roots thoroughly with a paring knife, removing all blemishes and tough outer skin.
  2. Slice the peeled celery roots into paper-thin slices using a mandolin, or slightly thicker slices if using a knife.
  3. Arrange 5 or 6 slices of celery root on the bottom of each serving plate.
  4. In a small bowl, toss the arugula with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.
  5. Divide the dressed arugula evenly among the plates, placing it over the celery root slices.
  6. Shave Parmigiano-Reggiano generously over each plate.
  7. Slice the truffles or porcini mushrooms paper-thin and arrange them over the cheese.
  8. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and serve immediately.
