36 pieces Celery aka "Apio", "Qin-Cai", "Xi-Qin", "芹菜", "西芹" Celery has a long fibrous green stalk tapering into leaves. Celery has a mild and strong taste at the same time, it reminds you of raw green onions in a way, with an earthy taste. Celery stalk is a popular ingredient in all kinds of side dishes and celery leaves can be used for stock, broth, soup, or salads. Celery is available year-round. Handling Tip Selection The celery stalk is thick, straight, and tightly packed together. The stalks and the leaves are light green and the leaves are not wilted. Check the inner stalk and make sure a uniform color of green. Avoid blackheart celery, a brown discoloration that eventually turns black. Storage Celery should be stored at 32°F (0°C) with a relative humidity of ninety-five percent and with mist. The typical shelf life is five to seven weeks. Higher temperature decreases shelf life, with less than two weeks of shelf life at 41°F (5°C). High temperature and low humidity lead to wilting. Celery is sensitive to odor and should not be stored with strong aroma products. Especially, apple and onion.  Celery is sensitive to high levels of ethylene, a naturally occurring gas that regulates ripening, at a higher temperature. Symptoms include yellowing and pithiness. If the temperature is low and the ethylene level is low, there will be less of an effect on celery. Celery produces a very low level of ethylene. Celery is not sensitive to chilling injury and should be stored as cold as possible without freezing. The freezing point for celery is 31.1°F (-0.5°C).
