What changes the calories
- Celeriac has a thick, knobbly skin that is usually peeled away, so weigh it after peeling to log only the part you eat.
- Boiling or steaming adds no calories, but cooked celeriac can weigh differently from raw, so log it in the same form you weighed it.
- Roasting or frying in oil adds the calories of the oil it absorbs, which can easily outweigh the celeriac itself.
- Mashes and purées often include butter, cream or milk, which add fat and calories beyond the vegetable.
Tips for logging it accurately
- Weigh peeled celeriac on a kitchen scale and log it as raw for the most accurate entry.
- Log any oil, butter, cream or cheese you cook it with as separate items so those calories are not missed.
- In BerryFit, you can snap a photo of your celeriac dish and then adjust the portion and added fats to match what you actually used.
