Celery stuffed with cheese and tomatoes is a light yet sophisticated appetizer inspired by Greek culinary traditions. Celery, known for its freshness and slight bitterness, transforms into a true delicacy thanks to the savory combination of Gouda cheese and sun-dried tomatoes. Mayonnaise and buttermilk add creaminess to the filling, while paprika adds warm spice. This dish is perfect for summer evenings or as an elegant appetizer on a festive table. It pairs harmoniously with white wine and refreshing drinks, and its simplicity in preparation makes it an ideal choice for those who appreciate refined yet accessible gastronomy.
