Scallops

Celery Root Puree

Method

Preparation of Celery Root Puree

  1. 1

    Cook the Celery Root

    In a pot, combine the diced celery root and heavy cream. Bring to a simmer and cook until the celery root is tender, about 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Blend the Puree

    Drain the celery root and cream, then blend until smooth. Add butter and salt to taste. Keep warm until ready to serve.

Cooking the Scallops

  1. 3

    Season the Scallops

    Season the scallops with salt and black pepper.

  2. 4

    Sear the Scallops

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallops and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and opaque. Remove from heat.

Prepare the Apple Salad

  1. 5

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a bowl, combine diced apple, sliced amarosa fingerling potatoes, and hazelnuts. Drizzle with truffle vinaigrette and toss gently to combine.

Plating

  1. 6

    Serve

    On each plate, spread a layer of celery root puree, place the seared scallops on top, and garnish with the apple salad.
