While celery stalks serve as a vegetable when cooked and as an appetizer
in the raw, the seeds of this plant are used as seasoning and spice.
Celery seeds enhance the flavor of many foods, especially tomato-based
soups and stews. The seeds are also an important flavoring ingredient in
herb and spice mixtures used for brining or pickling foods.
Celery seeds can also be used to add flavor to baked goods, namely
homemade breads and rolls, For a different twist, try adding some seeds
to dips, salad dressings and to your favorite coleslaw recipes.
