Caramelized Celery

1 serving

Caramelized celery is an unexpected combination of simple ingredients that creates a surprisingly harmonious flavor. This recipe hails from European cuisine, where vegetable caramelization has long been used to add depth and sweetness. Here, crunchy celery transforms into a soft, sweet snack thanks to brown sugar and floral honey that turn into fragrant caramel during cooking. The buttery note of the butter makes the taste richer and more balanced. This dish is perfect as a side for meat or poultry, adding a light sweetness and complexity of texture to the main flavor. Caramelized celery is an elegant and simple solution for diversifying the usual diet.
