Sweat the shallots in the melted butter. Add the sliced celery and wine. Reduce.
Add the diced celeriac and sweat some more. Add the vegetable stock and reduce.
Add the cream and 'poach' the celeriac for 90minutes over a low heat.
Strain and reserve to one side the juices as well as the celeriac.
Blend the cooked pulp until smooth, moisten with a little of the juices.
In another saucepan, reduce the liquid and add the reduction to the puree.
