Apple and Celery Root Slaw with Watercress

Apple and Celery Root Slaw with Watercress

February 26, 2015 | Recipes

We love to switch up our routines in the winter and look for a delicious refreshing salad. It's awesome to know you can find Kansas hydroponic greens at many of your local grocery stores all year round. Check out this great recipe from Chef Alli.

Note from Chef Alli: Is there anything better than a refreshing salad alongside a delicious roasted hunk of meat?  I especially like this slaw as a topper for Pork Tenderloin Medallions with Apple Cider Glaze.  

2 Granny Smith or Honey Crisp Apples
1 medium celery root, peeled and cored
1/4 cup cider vinegar
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 Tbs. spicy brown mustard
1/3 – 1/2 cup good olive oil
2 Tbs. chopped fresh tarragon or 1/2 tsp. dried tarragon
1 cup 4 Star Hydroponics watercress, tough stems removed

To make slaw, cut apples and celery root into thin matchsticks, either by hand or with a mandolin.

Place apples and celery root into a large glass bowl and toss with vinegar; season to taste with salt and pepper.

In a small bowl, combine mustard, olive oil and tarragon; pour prepared dressing over slaw and toss to coat. Let salad rest for 20-25 minutes before serving.

When salad has rested the appropriate amount of time, toss in the watercress and serve at once.
