PICKLED CELERY RELISH



Pickled Celery Relish image

This slightly spicy, crunchy and tangy relish will keep in the refrigerator for a month, but we're betting you'll use it up long before. Serve it as a condiment with everything from fried chicken-and-biscuits to fried rice, fold it into egg or chicken salad, or use it like giardiniera, layered with meat and cheeses on a crusty roll. And if you have some on hand...Stir some mustard seeds into the pickling liquid for a little extra crunch and flavor.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 12h15m

Yield 1 to 1 1/2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 bunch celery, including the heart
1 cup distilled white vinegar
6 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
One 1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and cut into matchsticks
1 small red fresno chile, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Trim the skinny tops and dark green leaves from the celery and discard or save them for soup. Save a handful of tender, light green leaves from the heart. Slice the ribs about 1/8-inch thick on an angle. Put the celery pieces and light green leaves in a large nonreactive bowl.
  • In a medium saucepan, bring the vinegar, 1 cup water, the sugar, salt, ginger and chile to a boil, stirring once or twice. Pour over the celery. Transfer to a mason jar or any sealable container, using a spoon or fork to press the celery into the liquid. Cover and refrigerate (it's okay if the mixture is still slightly warm) at least overnight before eating (the pickles will keep, refrigerated, for up to 1 month).

Tips:

  • Choose the right celery: Look for celery stalks that are firm, crisp, and have a bright green color. Avoid stalks that are limp or have brown spots.
  • Cut the celery into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly. If you are using a food processor, be careful not to over-process the celery, as this will make it mushy.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok or large skillet: This will help to prevent the celery from sticking and burning.
  • Add the celery to the pan in batches: This will prevent the celery from overcrowding the pan and steaming instead of frying.
  • Cook the celery over high heat: This will help to create a crispy exterior and tender interior.
  • Stir the celery frequently: This will help to prevent it from burning.
  • Add the sauce of your choice: The spicy sauce in this recipe is just one option. You can also try a sweet and sour sauce, a garlic sauce, or a soy sauce-based sauce.

Conclusion:

Spicy fried celery is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or side dish. It is a great way to use up leftover celery and it is also a healthy snack. The crispy exterior and tender interior of the celery, combined with the spicy sauce, make this dish a real crowd-pleaser. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy snack or side dish, give spicy fried celery a try.
