It eventually goes limp if it’s not used but it lasts for weeks in foil. I rarely have to throw any away since I stated using foil

Jeezus just cut it into 4inch length and put it in Tupperware with enough water to cover it and add a bit of salt . Put the lid on and it will stay crisp for six weeks. Change the water every two weeks. YW

Thank you very much for these! I have been wanting to use Celery in my soups and assumed my method of storage was to blame for my quickly wilted stalks :D This should help my future Celery endeavors, YaY! How long Per Stage of storage does the Celery last? Your pinned comment says 'Weeks' which sounds fantastic but do you have specific timeframes? example, up to 4 weeks in Aluminum foil, Loose stalks 2 weeks with Paper towel, Limp up to 1 week? Either way thank you so much for this video!!

@SavorySaver 2 жыл бұрын

For me, the celery lasts for 3-4 weeks in aluminum foil. Loose stalks are good for a couple days and if its limp and revived in water, it's usually good for another 3-5 days.

How do you use some at a time. Do u cut from the top and work down or take 1 stalk at a time

@SavorySaver 2 жыл бұрын

I tend to use one full stalk at a time unless I need a lot for a recipe like cream of celery soup. Then I cut across the whole head of it and work my way down

@terrancestapleton3859 3 ай бұрын

Curious. Never liked celery as a kid . I can thank BWW for the carrot and celery boats that used to come free with chicken wings Good respite between especially hot wings (to me anyway), But as for the way, I've stored celery at home from the store was cut off the brown and yellow bits put in a Tupperware container with water shake it a bit, drain most of the water and reseal the container. Then, every couple of days, I'd repeat that. They used to last almost 2 weeks.

what about vaccum sealing them in a plastic bag ? will that make them last longer ?

Vaccuum sealing may help as well. I like the aluminum foil because I don't have to keep opening and resealing the bag. Thank you for watching.

Storing it in aluminum foil sounds all well and good, but I have a small refrigerator and don't have space to just keep a head of celery. Is there no way to store cut celery long term?

Try cutting the celery head into smaller sticks before wrapping it in aluminum foil to save in space. Thank you for watching. I hope this helps.

There is a reason there is a shiny and dull side to foil. ALWAYS put the dull side toward your food. This keeps any chemicals in the foil from touching your foods.

@SavorySaver Жыл бұрын

Thank you so much for watching and sharing your tip!

@terryjoy5660 8 ай бұрын

No that is wrong. The difference is because of how it comes off the roll when being made. When in contact with something like the roller it is dull. When not in contact with anything it is shiny. Please look it up. Reynolds explains it. I never knew anything about the difference of foil. Someone asked me one time and I had no idea. So I thought it was something old timers knew. Then I saw a chef say(chef, Jean Pierre) there is no difference. It is how it is made. So I looked it up and yes it is how it is made. And besides I never heard it had to do with chemicals release, I heard it had to do with something about how the heat was reflected or held in. But NO there is not a reason for dull or shiny side of foil except how it is made.
