Sterilised Celery

Sterilised celery is heat-processed and preserved celery, most commonly stalk or root celery, kept in its own juice or brine. Thanks to the sterilisation process, it has a longer shelf life and can be used year-round regardless of the season. The flavour is milder than fresh celery, but it retains its characteristic earthy aroma. It is suitable for soups, stews, salads or as a side dish. Sterilised celery is a practical alternative to fresh, it requires no prior preparation and can be used immediately straight from the jar or tin. It is available in cans or glass jars in grocery stores.
