APPLE CELERY GRANITA
Steps:
- Put crushed vitaminutes C and sugar in a 1-quart container that will fit under spout of juicer.
- Using juicer, juice apples and celery into container. Spoon off foam and stir until sugar is dissolved.
- Pour into an 8- to 9-inch square stainless-steel or glass baking pan and freeze until partially frozen, about 1 hour. Scrape and stir with a fork, crushing any lumps. Continue to freeze, scraping once or twice, until evenly frozen, about 2 hours more.
- Stir together wasabi and enough water to make a pourable sauce.
- Scrape granita to lighten, then serve sprinkled lightly with sea salt and drizzled lightly with oil and wasabi sauce.
BLENDER GAZPACHO WITH CELERY, CARROT, CUCUMBER AND RED PEPPER
In a classic gazpacho all of these vegetables except the tomatoes are cut into fine dice and served as accompaniments to the puréed tomato base. In this version, I blend everything together into what is essentially a tangy, pungent vegetable smoothie. You can serve this in glasses or in bowls. I like the tarragon garnish.

Steps:
- Put the onion slices in a bowl, cover with cold water and add a few drops of vinegar. Let sit for 5 minutes while you prepare the remaining ingredients. Drain and rinse with cold water. Cut in half or into smaller pieces.
- Working in 2 batches, blend all of the ingredients except the tarragon or basil leaves in a blender for 2 minutes or longer, until smooth and frothy. Transfer to a bowl or container (a metal bowl is the most efficient for chilling) and chill for at least 2 hours before eating. Garnish each bowl or glass with chopped fresh tarragon or slivered basil leaves.

GAZPACHO
This gazpacho recipe comes in handy for luncheons in summer since it's so colorful and refreshing. I prepare it a day ahead using garden vegetables. The flavor gets even better as it sits in the refrigerator overnight. -Pat Waymire, Yellow Springs, Ohio

GARDEN GAZPACHO
My husband requested a gazpacho and it was great to use what I had just picked from my friends' garden. We just love living at the lake during the summer and our friends came over to enjoy this with us. The longer you let it sit in the refrigerator, the better.

CELERY SALAD WITH APPLES AND BLUE CHEESE
Celery is perhaps at its best in salad: Its flavor is at its brightest and its crunch is unapologetically assertive. Celery root complements the chopped stalks, apples add sweetness and blue cheese - celery's classic cohort - provides punch. Flavorful enough to stand on its own, this salad isn't so striking that it doesn't play well with others. Celery salad makes a welcome addition to the Thanksgiving table, particularly since the crunchy salad ingredients are strong enough to stay sturdy if refrigerated overnight.

Steps:
- Prepare the vinaigrette: In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, shallot, mustard, lemon zest and juice, and sugar; season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the sliced celery and toss to coat.
- Core the apples, then slice them lengthwise into very thin wedges using a knife or mandoline. Add to the sliced celery and toss to coat. Peel or slice off the outer skin and layers of the celery root until no brown skin remains. Cut the celery root in half lengthwise, then slice into very thin half-moons using a knife or a mandoline. Add to the celery and apple mixture and toss to coat. (The salad will hold up fairly well refrigerated for 1 to 2 hours - or even overnight - from this point.)
- Just before serving, add the parsley, almonds and half the cheese, and toss to combine; season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Transfer to a shallow serving bowl or platter; top with the remaining cheese, the reserved celery leaves and fresh parsley leaves. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use ripe, sweet apples. Granny Smith or Honeycrisp apples are good choices.
- If you don't have a juicer, you can grate the apples and then strain the juice through a cheesecloth-lined colander.
- To make the gazpacho ahead of time, prepare it up to 24 hours in advance and store it in the refrigerator. When you're ready to serve, stir in the chopped cucumber and celery.
- Garnish the gazpacho with fresh herbs, such as basil, cilantro, or mint. You can also add a drizzle of olive oil or a dollop of yogurt.
Conclusion:
Celery apple gazpacho is a refreshing and healthy soup that's perfect for a summer meal. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a light and flavorful soup, give celery apple gazpacho a try.
