"Celery tastes like water" is somwthing people only say because they heard other people say it. It clearly does not

Rhubarb: now when you bit the water with hair in it, it tastes sour.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 11 points 1 year ago

My sole reason for wanting to try rhubarb pie is because of people who've had rhubarb saying how sour it is. I fucking love sour stuff, and celery. So hells yeah I want some rhubarb. I never see it around here though 😬

Rhubarb pie is one of my favorite cakes. Try it if you get the chance!

Isn't rhubarb poisonous before cooking

[-] Daeraxa@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Its the leaves that have a lot of oxalic acid, the stems are edible raw, just utterly unpalateable. Although if you have a miracle berry first it is apparently delicious - https://youtu.be/hgvRoCY0hNA?t=10m26s

Better than just sticking my finger in the blue cheese dressing tho…

Celery is delicious and I will die on that hill

Mmmm crunchy water.

[-] Romkslrqusz@lemm.ee 12 points 1 year ago

This is only true of the celery you find in grocery stores.

Grow some in your garden, you’re in for a world of flavor you never knew existed

Same shit people say about cucumbers and they all taste like bland ass. Literally worse than iced tap water.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celery

Raw celery is 95% water, 3% carbohydrates, 0.7% protein, and contains negligible fat (table). A 100-gram (3+1⁄2-ounce) reference serving provides 16 calories of food energy, and is a rich source of vitamin K, providing 28% of the Daily Value, with no other micronutrients in significant content (table).

I "peel" celery like how I peel a potato. So basically peel off the stringy part. Then I cut them diagonally or at a 45° angle. I then stir fry them with carrots and string peas and baby corn and shallots with some garlic and salt.

It's so crunchy and fresh tasting.

No, we have sloppy blowjob aftermath at home.

And have it taste like eating shampoo or some other chemical soup not to be left within reach of children.

[-] fsxylo@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago

Damnit I wish I had some good shit to flavor my stew with.

[-] AnalogyAddict@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Growing your own celery is a game changer. Most produce we get in the store is hopelessly bland.

[-] Canadian_Cabinet@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

Celery is honestly the worst vegetable. I will not elaborate further

Celery loses most of it's flavor quickly after harvest. When it's actually fresh it's extremely tasty.

[-] TimLovesTech@badatbeing.social 5 points 1 year ago

The smell of raw celery makes me nauseous, especially when cut. Cooked in things I find the texture off-putting and tasteless, compounding the unwanted crunch added to something that shouldn't crunch.

[-] trolololol@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Cooked celery is not supposed to be crunchy. Grandma's recipe is cursed. I bet her broccoli is crunchy too, that's why it gets a bad rep.

[-] TheFriar@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

Broccoli should be slightly crunchy. Overcooked broc is gross

cut celery into large chunks, put some olive oil, pop it into the oven and take it back when it starts to char and soft. mix it with mushroom saute (and stir fried beef if not vegetarian)

[-] Nfamwap@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Then take the entire pot, and pour it's straight in the bin.

Even Doctor Who doesn't like it, and he wore celery as a brooch for years.
