celery leaves

Crunchy vegetable tops

Celery leaves are the feathery green tops of celery stalks, often discarded but edible and flavorful.

They taste like celery but more concentrated and slightly bitter, used as an herb in soups, salads, and stocks: Don't throw away the celery leaves—they're perfect for the broth.
