Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Celeriac Purée

    Peel and chop the celeriac into small cubes. Boil in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and blend with olive oil, salt, and pepper until smooth. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Broth

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic; sauté until translucent. Pour in the white wine and allow it to simmer for 5 minutes. Add fish stock, bring to a simmer.
