Tastes great on its own cold, a treat with peanut paste
cooked with tomatoes half'n half, volume wise noice. Add to soups. Celery soup add a bit of onion. Add whole bunch, leaves an all to stews. Good to nibble on without gaing a lot of weight![]()

it's like a vege you have when you're not having a vege
noice sliced and mixed with grated cheese as a side dish
it lasts for ages in the fridge
Like it, adds some crunch to many dishes and is a natural salt additive. Of course it is green so my kids hate it. I have a dastardly plan to cut it up super fine and add it to the spag bol tomorrow. Nice to try and outsmart a three year old, doesn't happen often

It's an edible spoon. Awesome with a tub of ricotta or cottage cheese, instant protein fix, low cal and bulks up your nards. Who could ask for more.

I grow it in a large tub....

never need much but always have it on hand![]()
The most disgusting food I have ever tasted. It should be banned.
you must be doing it wrong.
it lasts for ages in the fridge
That's an incomplete truth
, envelop the stuff in tin foil and it really will stay hard n crisp in your fridge , for weeks ! ! ! Without the tin foil, after a couple of days , it would only be good for soup. I like it in a tomato and red onion salad and sometimes on its own with salt. J
Tastes like dirt.
Likewise nice with peanut butter!
You are a dirt gormet or somefin eh![]()

Just insert it in a glass of water with food coloring in it. Won't be green for long.
I think what Carantoc might be asking is does it have any nutritional value?
It takes more energy to chew it than it provides. (may not be actually unfactual, not)

Couldn't agree more. It'd kill a brown dog at 50 paces I reckon.

The reason you don't get much calorific value out of celery is because it is mostly made up of cellulose which is a polysaccharide we cannot digest. In fact, there are very few animals that can digest cellulose and those that can (like termites) require a symbiotic relationship with very specific bacteria to do so.
So it's not so much that it takes more energy to chew or anything like that. You simply get nothing out of it. Your body extracts the water and excretes everything else. That's not to say there are not any benefits from eating it. It makes for great roughage. ![]()
