Celery Root Slaw (vegan)

Celery Root Slaw (quick and easy)

1 pound celery root, peeled
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons warm water
juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup dijon mustard
1/4 cup tofu sour cream (I use Tofutti brand Sour Supreme® - it's an excellent substitute for dairy sour cream)
1/4 cup olive oil
pepper to taste
1/4 - 1/2 cup fresh flat leaf parsley, chopped

Coarsely grate 1 pound peeled celery root. Toss with 1 tablespoon salt and 2 tablespoons warm water in a colander; let sit 20 minutes. Rinse and drain. Whisk the juice of one lemon and 1/4 cup each dijon mustard and tofu sour cream in a bowl, then whisk in 1/4 cup olive oil. Add the celery root, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Chill. Add chopped parsley before serving.

Note: This is very mustardy, so if you don't like mustard, I don't recommend it! Also, I'm not the biggest fan of raisins, but I think raisins and shredded carrots would be delicious in this!
I'm now a big fan of celery root!
