2 ounces heavy cream
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon tahini paste
3 ounces canola oil or canola oil blend

½ tablespoon white pepper
Instructions
1. Combine celery root and stock in a medium saucepan. Cook until celery root is al dente.
2. Add garbanzo beans and cook until celery root is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
3. Strain, reserving 3 ounces of the cooking liquid and the celery root and garbanzo beans.
4. Place the celery root, garbanzo beans, cooking liquid, butter, cream, lemon zest and tahini paste in a blender or food processor and process until smooth. While the blender or food processor is processing at low speed, slowly drizzle in the canola oil to incorporate.
