Making Celeriac Root Pasta Noodles-
Celeriac Root Pasta Noodles are wonderful veggie noodles that are paleo, low carb, gluten-free, and vegan.
Celeriac root pasta noodles are paleo, low carb, grain-free, gluten-free, and have the best taste and texture of all the veggie noodles I tried. Spaghetti squash would be a close second on that list.

You can make wonderful tasting spiralizer vegetable noodles from celeriac root. Even though this vegetable happens to be the "hands down" ugliest, least attractive vegetable in the whole produce department!
Don't let the outside of this vegetable scare you away, or you'll be missing out on a hidden gem.
Once it is peeled with a vegetable peeler of it's most hideous looking outer skin, it really looks like a potato.
Celeriac root makes great spiralized pasta, french fries, and is great whipped up into a celeriac mash or used instead of potato in soups.
Much lower in carbs and higher in fiber than conventional noodles. Perfect for paleo, low carb, keto, and primal diets.
Excellent with any favorite pasta sauces (marinara, alfredo, pesto, cheese sauce, and Asian style sauces).

Thank you so much for this recipe! I got loads of celeriac bulbs on yellow sticker from my grocery store (9p each down from 41p) and I've been running out of ideas. These are going to make a wonderful ramen!
Stacey says
That is a great price, David!
marguerite lindemann says
I love celeriac. I cook it mashed, French fried, scalloped, in stir fry dishes, in soups and hash. I never thought to use as noodles and can't wait to try it.. you can find celeriac at Krogers stores but they call it celery root. It is also fairly easy to grow in the garden from seed. It does needs soil with good drainage. I got my seed from a seed catalog.
Stacey says
Thank you, Marguerite, for the great information. I never thought of planting them in the garden.
Ken says
PLEASE... WHERE DO YOU FIND THIS MONSTER???
Stacey says
Ken, I found this beast in the produce section at a Raley's grocery store, but have seen them at Whole Foods, and other natural food grocery stores. Some stores will call it "Celery Root", but it is not usually not next to the celery & is most likely found next to the turnips, parsnips, and other root vegetables.
Kelly @ A Girl Worth Saving says
I have never tried these and I'm going a lower carb diet currently so you know I have to try this. Looks so good!
Stacey says
Thank you Kelly. It is fabulous!
Kandace says
I've tried Celeriac but can't physically manage it due to some issues with my hands. Do you know of any way to get this already cut and peeled? I'd love to try it again but buying one intact is a no-go for me... thanks!
Stacey says
Hi Kandance, my hands struggle with this too. I wonder if something like this battery operated vegetable and fruit peeler would work out:http://amzn.to/2vGCZHN . I have never seen it sold pre-peeled.
Katann says
I am not sure if I am reading this correctly. It says 1/2 c is one serving @ 5 Net Carbs? Why not Pasta Zero? It is Shirataki Spaghetti with 1 Net Carb, (4 Carbs, 3 Fiber) I used to buy Dreamfiels Pasta because it advertised 5 digestible carbs per serving, but I don't see that on the packaging anymore. Still, says for low carb diets. Past Zero has 15 calories and it tastes good. I found it at Walmart for under $3. It has 2.5 servings per bag. I also love spiralizing the zucchini!
Stacey says
Katan, yes Shirataki noodles are also good low carb option as well. I just like the texture and taste of celeriac noodles.
Kaann says
Thanks. Stacey, for the reply! I have never heard of the Celeriac root or ever seen one here in Texas. I'll have to check around. Wow...No Walmart? You should contact them because I hear they are always looking for new locations! Target is a big Plus though!d
Stacey says
My town won't let Walmart in (a no growth policy of some kind). They have tried to build one here. I was surprised they let a Target in.
Darryl says

Becky Winkler says
I tried celeriac a while ago and didn't love the flavor, but it was in a mashed potato-type recipe. These noodles look so good that I might have to give it another go!
Stacey says
I did not find the flavor strong in the noodles, as I did when I made fries with it.
Cristina Curp says
I didn't know celeriac root was so low carb! This seems like a great option for me. Thanks!
Stacey says
It is pretty low for a root veggie.
Holley Marth says
I would never have guessed celeriac root could be used for zoodles, pure genius!!

I wasn't sure, but I tried it and it now my favorite veggie noodle!

Thank you Renee 🙂
Stacey says
It is in the nutritional data above the printable recipe card that it is 1 cup vegetable noodles. The recipe card plugin only does weights in grams and that is why I put data in above the card in cups.
