Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Brush the carrots, parsnips, turnip and sweet potato with the olive oil and place the vegetables on a large baking sheet. Roast until tender, about 30-45 minutes, turning frequently. Set aside to cool.

  2. Step 2

    Peel the sweet potato. Finely chop all of the roasted vegetables and transfer to a large saucepan.

  3. Step 3

    Add the celery root, mace, nutmeg, thyme, broth and Sherry vinegar. Bring to a boil and simmer over medium heat for 15 minutes. Transfer to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Add the salt and pepper. Serve with the veal shanks.

Just made this to accompany pork on NYE. I didn't have Mace, so omitted it. Otherwise followed the recipe and got rave reviews. I would definitely make this again.
