How to Make Homemade Celery Spice

  1. Harvest all the leaves from 1 large head of celery (approximately 2 cups packed leaves).
  2. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Lightly spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
  3. Spread the celery leaves in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the leaves begin to crisp and slightly brown.
  5. Turn off the oven and leave the celery leaves in the oven to cool completely with the door slightly ajar.
  6. Allow the leaves to dry completely for at least 24 hours, or until bone dry and brittle.
  7. Once completely dry, place the leaves in a zip-top plastic bag and crush them using a rolling pin or your hands until they reach your desired consistency.
  8. Store your homemade celery spice in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Use to flavor soups, stews, salads, and more!
