This may take six to eight cuts on the bottom, turning the root over for another six to eight slices.Spiralize the root into spaghetti-sized noodles. Shred the radicchio.Preheat pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and celery root. Cook 5 minutes covered, stirring occasionally. Add the radicchio and cook until wilted, 2 - 3 minutes. Stir in the pesto and serve. (Recipe♦249)
