love the celery root, but prefer to add milk to the boiling water - it seems to coax out some more flavor.

I made this once, It was a lot of work - just getting a celery root peeled is pretty laborious. Unless i was being 'careful about my carbs' and desperately wanted to eat something mashed-potato-y, i wouldn't consider this worth my time.
