How To Freeze Celery

Celery is one of those vegetables you need to add amazing flavor to so many soups and dishes, however, I don’t normally buy celery every week. Just when I’m excited to create a new recipe and I need celery, those are the times I don’t have it. Well, I decided to buy an extra package of celery a few weeks ago, chop it up, and store it in the freezer for those times when I need it!

I LOVE this kitchen tip! It might be my favorite, besides freezing lemon slices! It’s so easy to grab a bag out of the freezer! Make sure that you also cut up those leaves! They are packed full of flavor!

Chop the celery, portion it into 1 cup servings, and store it in the freezer!

One package of celery gave me 7 cups worth of celery!!!!! That is a huge savings, there’s no waste, and now my freezer is stocked!

    Most vegetables need to be blanched prior to freezing, the vegetable will continue to mature, develop off-flavors, discolor or toughen if not blanched. Nutrition loss is minimal and micro-organisms are reduced. Onions, peppers,tomatoes, garlic, herbs and a few others don’t need to be blanched. Check a freezing food site/ books for blanching times and proper freezing technics. I’ve been canning and freezing for over forty years and found out the hard way when I tried shortcuts. Not worth the time and loss!

      I understand that, but for celery it’s not necessary. I’ve been doing this for 5+ years with no problems. Thank you for your input 🙂

    Do I need to peel the strings off of the celery first before chopping & flash freezing?

      It’s not necessary when freezing the celery because frozen celery is really only good in stir-frys or soups.

          No, it will just be mushy.
