Celery Salt Recipes

Celery salt is a savory seasoning made from ground celery seed blended with salt. It adds a bright, grassy, slightly peppery flavor that tastes like concentrated celery without the crunch, making it useful when you want depth and seasoning in one quick sprinkle. It is best known for Bloody Mary cocktails, Chicago-style hot dogs, potato salads, coleslaw, and deviled eggs, but it also works well in dry rubs, seafood boils, roasted vegetables, soups, and creamy dressings. Because celery salt already contains salt, use it as both a seasoning and a flavoring. Start with a small amount, then adjust the rest of the salt in your recipe to avoid over-seasoning.
