Celery Stalk & Leaf Flakes 25 lb Bulk Box - Frontier

A biennial or annual herbaceous plant, celery's botanical name is Apium graveolens. Grassy and hay-like, even a little bitter, the flavor of celery stalk and leaf is reminiscent of fennel and anise, but much milder.

Botanical Name: Apium graveolens L.

Origin: United States

Kosher: KSA Certified

Directions: To use the flakes, soften first by soaking in water for about five minutes, then draining. Or add the flakes directly to dishes that contain enough liquid to rehydrate the leaves (like soups or gravies). When substituting for fresh celery in a recipe, keep in mind that the dried flakes are stronger than the fresh stalk. They also rehydrate to about six times their dry volume! Try about 1 tablespoon of celery flakes per one small stalk of fresh celery.

Suggested Uses: Dried celery flakes are a convenient way to add celery's distinct flavor to stuffings, coleslaw, sauerkraut, curries, dressings, vegetable and egg dishes, tomato juice, sauces, salads, relishes, soups and breads. Try them in potpies, stewing chicken, and potato dishes.
