We have a new sandwich out everywhere today. It’s a take on a Buffalo Chicken sandwich. We use celery root, aka celeriac, this nobbly, gnarled joy of a winter vegetable. We cut it into planks, batter it with panko, and fry it. We’re getting ours from Norwich Meadows Farm, a farm in NY state that’s known for creating really flavorful organic veggies using a cool irrigation system.
Also on the sandwich: a buffalo aioli, a smoky fava bean spread, feta sauce, pickle coins, and a lovely cabbage slaw.
Phil brought us this idea last year, and by the time it was primetime-ready, celery root was out of season. Now it’s back and we’re ready to reveal this spicy treat to the world. Come by any Clover and let us know what you think!
