Celery. Celery has derived from a wild bitter tasting plant known as smallage. It has been used for centuries in soups and broths and has a distinct and individual flavour and aroma. Celery can be eaten raw or cooked and being very low in calories is a useful vegetable snack for slimmers. It is a source of Vitamin C. When celery is allowed to grow naturally the stalks are green. However, by banking up the earth against the shoots celery is âblanchedâ: the stalks are protected from sunlight and remain pale and white.
