@DJC3 Try celeriac mash with mozzarella and cheddar mixed in and some cheddar on top at the end. Used to love cheese and potato with home grown potatoes but that is a far superior product in my mind.
@DJC3 I have never tried to freeze celeriac. A clue for me lies in no supermarket selling it frozen but they do broccoli and cauliflower - even riced in both cases. You can grow it and leave it in the ground over winter but covered with straw - I did that and it was fine. One of us needs to try to freeze it as a tester.Does it freeze well do you know? The rest of my gang hate celeriac so it’d be useful to put individual portions for me into the freezer.

Edit:
I've got about half of one in the fridge so I volunteer to test it out. We will see what happens but obviously need a decent period of time to make it a valid test.
@Nicksu I have exactly the same issue, appreciably higher fbg and breakfast equivalent readings and not sure if IF or cold to blame. Sympathise with you, I am struggling to hold my nerve over IF but will sit on my hands for a couple more days.A slightly disappointing 6.2 today. Not sure if its diet related or the fact that I feel like crud because of the tail end of the cold. Bah humbug!
I finally went for my HBAC1 test today - review next week. I may be getting my knuckles rapped!@Nicksu I have exactly the same issue, appreciably higher fbg and breakfast equivalent readings and not sure if IF or cold to blame.

Off late mine fbg is hanging around 9. And after all the food n stuff...evening also it is around 9.
Yesterday took my Metformin ..ate banana n milk and went to gym. Came back test ..BS was 4.5.
Try blanching it first before freezing it @ianspurs it will not go dark then when it's frozen.I've got about half of one in the fridge so I volunteer to test it out. We will see what happens but obviously need a decent period of time to make it a valid test.
@Tipetoo that is brilliant advice - I expect you already knew you are a star but I will just reinforce it.Try blanching it first before freezing it @ianspurs it will not go dark then when it's frozen.
Here's a linky. https://www.leaf.tv/articles/how-to-freeze-celeriac/
No, I am not a star mate, but I will tell my partner she is tho' as she is the one who suggested it.@Tipetoo that is brilliant advice - I expect you already knew you are a star but I will just reinforce it.
Done, and I gave her a hug too.Please pass on my thanks to your good lady.
@sarahm723 don't feel useless. Everyone has a starting point and sharing what they were will reassure you. Testing is the start at least you know where you are and you can formulate a plan. Stick on these forums and ask questions. Hang around for a year and people will be asking you how you did it.My god I feel useless everyone’s morning bloods are amazing I’m so unstable was 13.8 myself
dont feel like that . people in here have cracked the code, most eat less than 150 grams of carbs in a day , and when doing that most can get their numbers down in a normal level--- if not many go even lower like under 100 grams in total in a dayMy god I feel useless everyone’s morning bloods are amazing I’m so unstable was 13.8 myself
