    I love the creativity with such an underrated veg. Pesto is one of my favorite sauce/dressing for many dishes. I was expecting a heavier use of it, but I love that you chef it up and just dressed it at the end as it needs to stay raw to fully shine💯big points for legit techniques all the way across. I must admit, sumac is one of my favorite and a new discovery in last 15 years. Such zesty lemon earthy tang and great addition to cumin in coconut yogurt for that middle eastern flavor . I was picturing all of these sauces and ingredients in a home made pita bread pocket!!!😋 side note since this is long anyway. The kitchen is a stunner mate! I build kitchen and custom cabinetry for a living. Love where you took this. Kind of a dream set up! The 3/4 angle shot of the shallow counter eating sesh is 👌🏼. Tom is always on point!!! Crushing it as always.

Also have asparagus and fresh herbs from the garden. You inspire me.

    My first experience with celery root as a vegan was in Denmark. They use it everywhere when preparing vegetarian dishes, including burgers and steaks. It's probably because it's so cheap here and easy to cook. I do enjoy it if it's really well seasoned. Otherwise, you'll end up eating a bland root.
