- "The Irish excel with root vegetables, and every home garden seems to boast lush rows of celeriac, parsnips, turnips, leeks, rutabagas, and potatoes.
- This savory bisque is a subtle and suave use of the humble and often ignored celery root. Along with glasses of sherry, it makes a great beginning to an elegant celebration of St. Patrick. Spinach leaves add in pretty green color to the bisque."
