Irish Moon Landing

The moon is made out of cheese, we all know that. What is not so widely known is that it is in fact made out Irish Cheddar, and that the Irish were first in conquering it (thus the green flag).

So: Someone will have to grate the celeriac. And the carrots, unless you want to use jarred.
Smoked tofu, here we go again. Chop finely.
Radish, some, slice.
Cheddar, chop
Shallot
Some parsley
Pumpkin seeds

Dressing
Barbecue sauce
Olive oil
A little twist of lemon juice
Orange marmalade
Salt, pepper.

Season 3

Season 3, had you ever wondered, is autumn.

Finely chop:
smoked tofu
celeriac, also some from the jar again I admit, as I like the pickle taste ...
red onion

some tomatoes went in as well as
some carrot slices

sprinkle with a mixture of
sprouts
roasted danish onions
raw sea salt
sunflower seeds
pumpkin seeds (Halloween approaching)
sesame seeds

dressing:
lemon juice
olive oil
sesame oil
ginger marmalade
some soy sauce
some celeriac water (from pickle jar)

I probably forgot something else.

Yes: the apple slices.

Hmm ...

Waldorf Plus

A classic we've been wanting to do all along. Celeriac and walnuts, it's that time of the year.

Peel celeriac and cut into thin stripes.
Same with some (sourish) apples.
Pour over some lemon juice. Sprinkle with salt and a little sugar.
We also added a bit of orange juice. Some pieces of orange may also be  nice.
Walnuts, chopped not too finely.
An onion is a possibility, but not absolutely necessary. We have become kind of accustomed to them, thus chopped one without really thinking about it.
Cream, mayonnaise, a bit of white vinegar.
Some pickled celeriac can help if you do not have a lot of time to let this sit and soak a bit.

And finally, as a unique selling point, we have added some chunks of our favourite mature cheddar. It also entertains the chef, as it gives her something to nibble on in those hungry moments before lunch.

The uplifted frog - Celeriac, walnut, grape and cheddar salad

Oh, what a happy week we had. We went canoeing and made other people prepare our salads, we only had to eat and everything else was taken care of!

Feeling unusually rejuvenated, young and productive today.

Flaked Winter Veggies

celeriac, pear, brown mushroom - "flake" all of these with a vegetable peeler
optional: corn lettuce - but I tend to think it is not actually needed. Be adventurous and leave it out.
