So, what is leaf celery?
Leaf celery, also known as Chinese celery or cutting celery, is a variety of celery that is primarily cultivated for its flavorful and aromatic leaves rather than its stalks. Unlike regular celery, which has thick, stringy stalks, leaf celery has thin, delicate stems and leaves that are highly valued in Asian and European cuisines. With a stronger and more pungent flavor than traditional celery, leaf celery is often used as a seasoning or garnish in soups, stews, and salads, as well as a key ingredient in traditional dishes such as Chinese dumplings and Italian bagna cauda. High in vitamins A and C, leaf celery is a nutritious and versatile ingredient that can add depth and complexity to a wide range of dishes.
