Celeriac (Apium graveolens Rapaceum Group, synonyms Apium graveolens Celeriac Group and Apium graveolens var. rapaceum), [1] also called celery root, [2] knob celery, [3] and turnip-rooted celery [4] (although it is not a close relative of the turnip), is a group of cultivars of Apium graveolens cultivated for their edible bulb-like hypocotyl, and shoots.
The stems are thinner than those of Western celery, and curved into round, hollow stalks. Also, unlike with Western celery, the leaves are used as well as the stalks. [6] It has a stronger taste and smell compared to celery. It is used as a flavoring in soups and sometimes pickled as a side dish. [7]
