Celery Salt

It may surprise you to learn that celery salt is not made from dried celery stalks but from celery seeds. The combination of table salt and ground celery seed produces a fresh, grassy seasoning that can be used in addition to or instead of plain salt. Celery salt pairs well with other Mount Hope herbs and spices such as garlic powder, paprika and coriander.

Sprinkle our celery salt onto meat and chicken alone or with other seasonings as a rub to add flavor before cooking. It adds a tantalizing fresh flavor to creamy salads like potato salad, egg salad or coleslaw and is a great alternative to plain table salt on fish, vegetables, potatoes, rice and even popcorn! Celery salt also works well in slow-cooked foods, adding a layer of flavor to soups, stews and roasted vegetables. One popular way to use this condiment is as a topping for Chicago-style hot dogs.
