- Celery
- 1 teaspoon [5 mL] water per 2 to 4 cups [500 mL to 1 L] celery sticks or dices
- 1/2 teaspoon [2.5 g] sugar
|
- Remove needed stalks from celery; peel and either slice each stalk into 1 to 2-inch [2.5 to 5-cm] pieces or cut stalks into sticks or dices.
- Do not forget that for cooking, larger outside stalks are the best, just as center ones are best eaten raw.
- Arrange celery pieces or stalks into a microwave-safe dish; sprinkle celery with water.
- Sprinkle all over with sugar.
- Cover and microwave on 'HIGH' for 4 to 8 minutes.
- Drain celery, that is now ready to be prepared as directed in recipes.
