MASH
Web-goddess recently mentioned mashed cauliflower in her birthday dinner post. (where her hubby made her a very carnivorous dinner, amyc, don't go, really)
Anyway, this whole mashed cauliflower thing sounds pretty darn good. I'm SO going to try that one. But I got to thinking about all the veggies you can mash; yams, potatoes, carrots and pumpkin (aka squash). What else? Peas. Maybe parsnips? That's a lot of veggies. Aw damn, looks like I might have to invest in one of those hand held blender thingos....
Anyway, so I come across this vegetable called a 'celeriac'. Now I'm sure I've heard the name before but I can tell you that I'm pretty sure I've never eaten one. It looks like you took a potato and a celery stalk and shoved them together. And you can apparently eat the whole darn thing! And some of the recipes out there look pretty yummy.
jeez, I'm thinking about winter foods already....

Honey, you need to get you a ricer! They're revolutionary in the way of mashed vegetables! It gives mashed potato the best texture!!
