Pull off all of the slices, and cut them into strips, Store celery in a sealed container with a little water to keep it crisp. Once you have chopped all of this up with a chef’s knife (make sure to use a sharp knife) on a cutting board, I sometimes place it in a freezer bag to use later in soup or stew. Don’t forget the root end too, that is lovely to eat. I love to add these ingredients to a dish to add some extra flavor. Take that celery and chop it into large chunks, dice celery, and put it in so many things like jambalaya, sauces, etc.
I grew up eating celery with peanut butter in the middle, did you? We also love to eat our celery with blue cheese dressing when eating hot wings. Prep your celery by washing it well to get rid of dirt.
Now I know what to do with my celery! I usually make celery juice but this looks much better!
Oh I need to learn how you make your celery juice! 🙂
