    Ingredients
  • 1 gallon water
  • 1/2 gallon white wine
  • 1 lemon, quartered
  • 1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
  • 1 carrot, coarsely chopped
  • 1 celery stalk, coarsely chopped

    Celery Root Puree

    Ingredients
  • 1 celery root (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled, trimmed, and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 or 2 small baking potatoes (about 4 ounces), peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons (1 ounce) unsalted butter
  • Freshly ground white pepper
