Smaller than its European cousin, pink celery consists of firm, hollow, and elongated stalks, displaying a range of colors from bright fuchsia to pale pink. Its flat, toothed, trilobed leaves are a fresh, bright green and exude an intense vegetal aroma. When eaten raw, pink celery has a distinct, rather strong taste, but it becomes tender, sweet, and crunchy when cooked. Its rich flavor enhances soups and broths. Versatile, it can be enjoyed raw in salads or as a garnish, or even pickled. The leaves and stalks lend themselves to numerous preparations: stir-fries, braises, boiling, or frying. Its aroma pairs wonderfully with pork, beef, duck, poultry, fish, shrimp, garlic, onion, ginger, mushrooms, potatoes, and almonds. Sliced into strips, it will also be a conversation starter on crudité platters. The stalks keep for up to a week in the refrigerator. Pink celery is an excellent source of vitamin K and a good source of potassium, magnesium, calcium, manganese, and antioxidants. In addition, its leaves are rich in vitamin A. Chinese medicine even attributes anti-inflammatory properties for the digestive tract to it. Grow organic seeds of pink celery and discover an exceptional vegetable with multiple benefits.
