A Lesson in Using What's Available


There are some things that are just unavailable here.  Brown sugar, buttermilk, chocolate chips.  Another thing that's taken some getting used to is that they don't sell celery.  Only celeriac/celery root.  I have used this a few times in the States, but it was never something I stocked like I did celery.  The taste is pretty spot on...but translating "2 stalks of celery" into a given amount of diced celery root is pretty much a guessing game!
