Celery seeds are the small, dried seeds harvested from the celery plant, known
scientifically as Apium graveolens.
These seeds are a versatile spice and have a slightly bitter, earthy flavor
with hints of celery.
They are commonly used in cooking, pickling, and as a seasoning in various
dishes.
Celery seeds are also valued for their potential health benefits, as they
contain essential nutrients and phytonutrients, including antioxidants.
They are often used to enhance the flavor of soups, stews, dressings, and
coleslaw, and they can be a valuable addition to a balanced diet.
Additionally, some people use celery seed extracts or supplements for their
potential anti-inflammatory and diuretic properties, although their health
benefits may vary from person to person.
