Notes
Resources About Celery
Celery has been around a long time, and celery soup is no different. Celery has been grown in the marshlands, and has a history with cultures such as the Greeks, Italians, and French. It was originally known to be grown in winter and early spring and its focus was to be eaten to bring about some balance after a long winter of eaten primarily meat. In Asia, it’s sometimes pickled as a side dish. Celery itself is eaten as a vegetable around the world.
In the U.S., it used to be stored in restaurants in water, along with a preservative but that practice was later banned by the FDA. That’s because, over time, it was learned that the sulfides in the preservatives would cause allergic reactions to enough people that it was decided to halt that procedure.
Celery itself, although it’s about 95% of water, it’s known to be rich in Vitamin K and is a good source of energy. If you want to read more, click here for more details from Wikipedia.
