Vegetable
Stalk
Celery stalk is the fibrous support structure—often sweeter and juicier than expected once peeled or sliced thin. It adds crunch to stir-fries and body to braises. Peel tough outer fibres when needed, cut on a bias for tenderness, and cook until just crisp-tender unless a soft braise is wanted.
