I usually buy many
stalks of celery every week because I juice them along with cucumber, two
carrots and one half apple. This veggie juice helps detoxify your body.
Unfortunately, I always end up with so much leftover celery leaves. I like them
but my mom and other friends do not particularly like the bitter taste of the
leaves when they are juiced so I usually throw them away. Then I decided, “Why
don’t I make homemade celery leaves pesto? I’ll experiment.” Well, it turned out nice even if I do say so
myself. I put it on my whole wheat sandwich as a special spread, add it to my other vegetable dishes, use it as a side dish and as a dressing for salad. Making celery leaves pesto is easy and best of all, you can
come up with your own recipe as well. Be imaginative and add other ingredients
that you like. Bon appétit.
Suggested ingredients
1 to 1 ½ cup of finely
chopped celery leaves
4 tablespoon of extra
virgin olive oil
4 tablespoon of balsamic
vinegar
1 tablespoon minced
garlic
½ teaspoon of finely chopped
ginger
Salt and pepper to taste
I wanted to add fresh chopped
basil leaves but I ran out.
