Caramelized Celery Linguine
Last week’s Portlandia episode was all about how celery has fallen behind a lot of other new “buzz” veggies like brussel sprouts, kale, and cauliflower, and how Steve Buscemi, the celery rep, was trying to get celery back on the map. I always love Portlandia, but when they make fun of food culture it makes me laugh even more. I decided to take this celery issue into my own hands and try and make a trendy blogger type dish with celery. My trendy blogger style dish failed, and a cocktail I made was just ok, but this celery loaded pasta was amazing. It’s not gonna go viral anytime soon or dig celery out of its hole, but it’s a great and unique dish which opened my eyes to caramelized celery.
