Celery Root Remoulade with Scallops and Caviar Required Ingredients
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
- 1 pound celery root—quartered, peeled, and cut into thin julienne strips using a mandoline
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- Four 2-ounce sea scallops
- Pinch of cayenne
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- Osetra caviar (for garnish)
Step-by-Step Process
-
Prepare the Celery Root Remoulade:
- In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and chopped parsley.
- Fold in the celery root julienne strips and season with salt and pepper.
- Cover and refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour.
-
Prepare the Scallops:
- Preheat the broiler.
- Cut each sea scallop crosswise into 3 slices.
- Arrange each scallop like a clover leaf on a baking sheet, overlapping the slices slightly.
- Mix the cayenne with melted butter and brush it on the scallops.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Broil until heated through, approximately 1 minute.
-
Assemble the Dish:
- Mound the celery root remoulade on individual plates.
- Place the scallop clovers on top of the remoulade.
- Garnish generously with Osetra caviar.
Tips Serve Caviar:
- For a richer remoulade, you can use full-fat mayonnaise.
- If you don't have a mandoline, you can julienne the celery root by hand using a sharp knife. Just be sure to cut the celery root into thin, even matchsticks.
- Be careful not to overcook the scallops, as they can become tough and rubbery.
-
Caviar is a salty ingredient, so go easy on the salt when seasoning the rest of the dish.
