Celery

Celery is a vegetable belonging to the Umbelliferae family. This plant has thick green grooved stems that form a stalk with a cluster of ribbed leaves at the end.

The name, celery, refers to the species which is eaten for its leaves; therefore, it does not include celeriac or celery root, although they both belong to the same species.

Celery is eaten fresh, boiled or as an additive to add flavour to soups and stews.
