What goes with Celery?
Celery is more than background mirepoix. Raw stalks contribute cold crunch and mineral freshness; slow cooking turns them sweet and savoury; leaves act almost like a strong herb. The outer ribs carry more fibre and flavour than the pale heart. Apple, blue cheese and walnuts exploit its fresh bitterness, while chicken and butter draw out its savoury base note.
