Instructions: Although celery is usually eaten raw, it is quite good as a cooked veggie.

Remove the leaves and save them for a soup or salad. [[Or save them in the fridge until they turn brown and then throw them in the garbage.]] Cut the
ribs into pieces of about 1 inch in length, and allow about 1/2 cup for each diner.

Barely cover the celery with boiling water, cover the saucepan tightly, and cook about 12 minutes, until tender-crisp. Drain, reserve the liquid for the same soup
for which you saved the leaves, and serve the celery with salt and pepper to taste, creamed, au gratin, scalloped, in mushroom sauce, or mixed with other veggies.

[[Spike does not think that a real man would eat creamed celery - or quiche.]]
