Tips
Great ideas for purchasing, storing, and consuming celery.
- Look for celery that is green and firm. Avoid any that have brown spots or signs of wilting.
- If you’re not going to use the entire bunch of celery before it spoils, wrap it in a damp paper towel and put it in a zip-top bag. Use within two days.
- If you’re using celery in a savory dish, cook it first until soft; then chop or slice as needed. In salads and cold dishes like coleslaw, leave the leaves intact and chop the stalks instead.
- Celery pairs well with other vegetables and meats.
- "Ants on a log" is a classic celery recipe. Spread peanut butter on clean celery stalks and top with raisins.
