Share Notes

  • Celeriac: Celeriac, also known as celery root, is a variety of celery grown for its edible bulbous root crown. Do not be put off by its rough exterior; inside is a surprisingly delicious and versatile vegetable.
  • Chicory, Pan di Zucchero: The beautiful elongated chicory in your share this week is a sugarloaf type, hence is sweeter flavor and long loaf like nature. This fall treat holds up well to sauteeing, but has great flavor fresh and hold up well against robust dressings, so why not treat yourself to a fresh fall salad.
