Part 19/26:
The chef combines celery root, fennel, Yukon Gold potatoes, and Golden Delicious apples, creating a complex and harmonious blend of flavors. The celery root and fennel provide an earthy, slightly peppery note, while the apples lend a touch of sweetness to balance the dish.
To achieve a silky, smooth texture, the chef uses a food mill to purée the cooked vegetables and apples, ensuring a velvety consistency without any lumps or graininess.
The finished purée is then seasoned with salt and pepper, and a touch of cream is added to enhance the luxurious mouthfeel.
