Gardeners know that the celery grown at home has a much richer and complex flavor than the celery found in most stores. Diced celery is a part of the “culinary trinity” of stock/broth, known as mirepoix, which also includes carrots and onions. Mix 2 parts onions to 1 part each of carrot and celery to form the flavor base for many stocks, soups, stews, and sauces. Cajun and Creole cuisine also includes celery in “the trinity” along with onions and bell peppers. The trinity is the base of dishes such as gumbo and jambalaya.

When celery leaves begin to emerge, remove the plastic cover and place the container in a sunny spot, always keeping soil moist.
