ingredients
directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Cut parchment paper into six 11-inch squares and fold each in half diagonally and then open back up.
In large bowl, add the edamame, celery root, carrots, garlic and vermouth. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
Divide vegetable mixture into six equal portions and place onto squares of parchment paper next to the fold. Pour remaining liquid from bowl equally over each vegetable portion. Add one tsp. of butter and one sprig of tarragon on top of vegetable portion. Seal each parcel by first folding over the empty half of the parchment paper. Starting at one end, twist the edges of the paper to form a tight seal, working along the edge until you have a half-moon shape.
Place packages onto baking sheet. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the parcels puff and the vegetables are tender and cooked through to your liking. Remove from oven. Cut open each package using scissors and carefully pour the contents onto serving plates. Or, to really wow your guests, serve this the traditional way by cutting open the packages on individual plates at the table. Yield: 6 servings
