About Celery leaf

Celery leaf refers to the leafy green parts attached to celery stalks, rather than the stalk itself. The leaves are flat and divided, with a stronger green colour and a more delicate structure than the thick, ribbed stalks; they may be sold attached or separated.

The leaves have a fresh, savoury celery flavour and are used raw as a garnish or cooked to season soups, sauces and other dishes. They wilt readily when heated. Fresh leaves are the usual form, though dried celery leaf is also available and has a more concentrated character.
