Make   -   (2 hr - 15 min work)
  1. Peel CELERY ROOT to remove all the grungies. Slice about 1/8 inch thick and cut into 1/8 inch wide matchsticks. Tumble well with Lemon Juice and let sit for around 2 hours tumbling now and then.
  2. Chop PARSLEY fairly fine.
  3. Tumble Everything together until uniformly mixed.
  4. Serve well chilled.
NOTES:

  1. Celery Root

      [Celeriac]   Select moderate size roots with a bunch of stems coming out the top. Large (or even small) roots with a single very thick stem will be fibrous and tough, usable only for flavoring soup stock, not for eating.

  2. Mayonnaise:

      On this site "Mayonnaise" means Best Foods (west of the Mississippi) or Hellmann's (east of the Mississippi) "Real Mayonnaise", as agreed by most food experts. Home made is even better (see Mayonnaise). Not a problem in "over-regulated" California, but folks in "business friendly" Red States might want to pass on that.
  3. U.S. measure: t=teaspoon, T=Tablespoon, c=cup, qt=quart, oz=ounce, #=pound, cl=clove in=inch, ar=as required tt=to taste
