Celery Seed Background and Benefits

Celery belongs to the Apiaceae family, which also includes carrots and parsley. Celery plants can grow up to ten feet tall, and the leaves can grow more than two inches long. The white flowers are about one-tenth of an inch in diameter and grow in dense clusters called umbrellas. The celery "seeds" are about 1/16 inch in diameter, although they are actually the fruits of the plant.
Celery is used as a vegetable all over the world. In North America, the most common variety is Pascal, whose stalks grow in dense, straight clusters. The most commonly used part of the Pascal celery is the vertical leaf stalk, also called the petiole. The leaves have a pungent, aromatic flavor and are usually used to flavor soups. The celeriac variety is more widespread in Europe and is grown mainly for its large tubers.
 
Celery can also be grown for its seeds, especially in temperate climates. Celery seeds have a strong flavor that comes from a volatile oil called apiol. Celery seeds are mainly used as a spice, but are also found in many pharmaceutical and cosmetic products.
