German Pickled Celery Salad – Sellerie Salat

pickled celery salad

The German Pickled celery salad is very popular in Germany and you can buy it in every supermarket in the jar from Kühne or Hengstenberg.
This sweet sour celery salad is not that difficult to make. Here’s a very easy recipe fro you. Some other recipes are using the pickled cucumber liquid as well. I think a mix of white wine vinegar and cucumber brine would be good too. Happy Cooking!

2 kg celery root
1 smaller onion
1/4 l white wine vinegar
1 tbsp lemon juice
salt and sugar to taste
celery root

Cooking Instructions Pickled Celery Salad

– Clean celery roots, leave them as whole.
– In a large pot add water, boil celery with some salt for about 1 hour until they are “al dente” (not too soft).
– Drain, then peel and grate or cut in Julienne style.
