Source of Recipe


Recipe courtesy Emeril Lagasse, 2000


List of Ingredients




2 ounces celery root, peeled and finely chopped (about 1 cup)
1/4 cup chopped yellow onions
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon leaves
1 large egg*
Salt
Cayenne
1 cup vegetable oil
1 pound lump crabmeat, picked over for shells and cartilage
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 cups shredded radicchio
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves

Recipe



Put the celery root, onion, mustard, lemon juice, tarragon and egg in a food processor, fitted with a metal blade. Season with salt and cayenne. Blend for 30 seconds.
With the machine running, slowly drizzle in the vegetable oil. The mixture will thicken slightly. Cover and chill for 30 minutes.

Put the crabmeat in a medium-size mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add 1 cup of the dressing and toss lightly to mix. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

Toss the radicchio with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Spread over the bottom of each serving plate. Spoon the salad in the center of the greens. Arrange the tempura peppers around the salad. Garnish with parsley.
