Baked Celery

By my recollection, this dish is very similar to one my Irish grandmother cooked. Cooked celery as a side-dish vegetable seems to be out of vogue now, but it really is quite good.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 350F degrees.

    Separate celery into stalks, remove leaves (save for soup) and trim, wash well and cut into pieces about 3/4-inch thick.
  3. 3
    Place celery in an ungreased casserole dish.
  4. 4
    Dice bacon; add bacon and sliced onion to casserole, atop the celery.
  5. 5
    Sprinkle all with fresh parsley.
  6. 6
    Combine stock and water (or just use all stock) and pour over dish; don't stir.
  7. 7
    Dot casserole with small bits of butter.
  8. 8
    Cover dish and bake for 30 to 45 minutes, or until celery is cooked but not mushy.

Sorry Lennie, but I did not like this recipe at all. It turned out like soup, which I should have expected since celery is made up of water. Might be good with 1/4 of the liquids and some cheese?

    The only change I made was to use bottled parsley flakes instead of fresh parsley. This was a different side dish and a good way to use up some celery. I wasn't crazy about the appearance of the bacon after cooking. If I make it again, I think that I'll leave it out until serving and top the celery with cooked and crumbled bacon. Thank you for posting this recipe.

    Oh, this was wonderful. My great-grandmother used to make this dish. I just loved the celery flavor baked. I followed this recipe exactly and it finished beautifly! Thanks Lennie.....I ate most of it myself.
