Dang...I forgot celery salt; the challenge description has been updated accordingly.
The CookingBites recipe challenge: celery, celeriac, celery salt & celery seeds

Dang...I forgot celery salt; the challenge description has been updated accordingly.
I figured it was ok since it’s just ground up celery seed and salt. I usually just mix up my own.
My first one is a fun, easy one:
Recipe - Stuffed Celery Sticks
This makes a great appetizer/snack. What I like about it is that it absolutely titters 1961 cocktail party to me. It's shamelessly campy, and has the added benefit of being addictively delicious.
Funny side story: the pic you see above...I totally messed this up. I was reading the ingredients, and it was 1/2 cup this, a 1/2 cup that, and when I got to the 1/2 teaspoon mustard...yup, I read that as a 1/2 cup!
Truth is, it still tasted great, because it had that pungent little slap of mustard. Both MrsT and I, after finishing these, said, "I wish we had some more!"

I looked up celery seed in my local supermarket and failed. So I looked up celery salt and got a single hit and it is anything but salt and celery seeds! It's not white or grey either.
92% salt & celery seed.
If 92% salt and celery seed is not enough, celery salt is easy to make with a food processor or spice/coffee grinder. For me, I would make mine with less salt and more celery seed.
BTW, I like celery salt as a general seasoning.

Here’s mine:
As you can tell by the date, I’m more prone to use my homemade version!
There was a recipe for Rujak posted in the sugar challenge, and when I went to look at one of my favourite Indonesian cooking site, I saw a recipe for Rujak with celery.
If they have celery in the shop I may just try make that as it sounds like something that could work.
I just checked and the recipe asks for celeriac, but I think straight celery will work.

Anyone ever use these:

Here comes my first, then: Asian Inspired Slaw with Celery and Kohlrabi
I went to the local "supermarket", aka Grocery Store, and they had purple kohlrabi. Wow. I'd never seen "purple" and never seen with the leaves, so I bought some, just for the hell of it. Great raw in salads, so I thought I'd just make a "slaw" with what I'd got, which included a huge bunch of celery.
.For a salad as simple as this, I'd just add what ever you have to hand. Napa cabbage, for example, would be great.

My next one, a cocktail:
Recipe - Celery Tonic
I must say, it’s the first time I’ve ever muddled celery for a cocktail, but it was quite nice. The celery added a slightly spicy-bitter taste that worked out well.
MrsT’s comment: “Celery?…In a drink?…<slurp>…That’s refreshing!”

Chicken & Saffron Rice
I thought that I wasn't going to share any of this, but it does make alot.
Very tasty!
I think if I make this again, I'm going to use 6 Chicken thighs to this 10 ounce package of Rice.

I made stewed Italian sausages today, and the recipe called for fresh fennel and fennel seed.
I assumed I had fennel seed, but I didn’t. I’d thrown it out on a recent purge because it was several years old, and I forgot to replace it.
What does Google say is an excellent substitute for fennel seed? Celery seed! Celery seed to the rescue!

Co-incidentally, I was researching celery seeds today and came across the same (this was in a book about herbs and spices, not Google).
