About Spices, celery seed

Wild celery is the common name for the untamed ancestral form of celery (Apium graveolens), a strongly aromatic marsh plant of Europe and Asia also known as smallage. Wilder and more pungent than the mild, crunchy celery sold in supermarkets, it has slender, hollow stalks and dark, glossy leaves with a bold, almost peppery celery flavor that cooks use sparingly as a seasoning herb. Its leaves and stems flavor soups, stocks, and stews, and its tiny seeds are dried as celery seed, the pungent spice behind celery salt and many pickling and spice blends.

Low in calories, the plant supplies vitamin K, vitamin C, potassium, and aromatic compounds, and it has a long history in traditional herbal use. Because the flavor is so concentrated, a small amount goes a long way in the pot. When foraging, it is vital to be certain of the plant, since it resembles poisonous relatives such as water hemlock. Use the fresh leaves quickly and keep them chilled, and store dried celery seed in an airtight jar away from heat and light.
