Long term storage

Drying

  • Slice about 1/4" and dry at 130 until dry.
  • Cut it up like you want to use it eventually, and dry it at a fairly low temp (115 degrees or so) until it's dry. The time it takes depends on the humidity.

Freezing

  • It is possible to freeze Celery, it will be a bit soft when thawed, but good for steam juicing, cooking etc. The taste will be preserved, but the consistency will be softer.

In the fridge

  • Put in heavy aluminum foil, and keeps in the fridge for a long time (month-months).
  • Put in a glass with some water (few days, you will need to change the water).
