Celery seeds are a member of the parsley family. Although the taste of the seeds is more pungent and bitter it is very similar to fresh celery. Celery seeds go well with tomatoes, rice dishes, marinades, stocks, seafood, soups or sauces. Use as a substitute for fresh celery.
Celery seeds are very helpful for people suffering from an over supply of uric acid. Celery has large amounts of potassium and organic sodium that help to rid the body of waste material by stimulating various sites such as the skin, bowels and kidneys. It re-balances the acid/alkaline in the system and may help prevent certain cancers.
