BRAISED CELERY
Steps:
- Peel any of the fibrous outer stalks of celery with a vegetable peeler and slice into 1-inch pieces on the bias.
- Heat the butter in a 10-inch saute pan over medium heat. Once melted, add the celery, salt and pepper and cook for 5 minutes until just beginning to soften slightly. Add the beef broth and stir to combine. Cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook until the celery is tender but not mushy, approximately 5 minutes. Uncover and allow the celery to continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the liquid has been reduced to a glaze. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with the reserved leaves.
BRAISED CELERY WITH VERMOUTH-BUTTER GLAZE
From Cook's Illustrated, this is a tasty side dish. I usually add less liquid (water) as it is a little too watery for us.

Steps:
- Peel the tough, fibrous layers from the outer celery ribs. Split the ribs lengthwise and cut into 2 to 3-inch long pieces. Chop 2 tablespoons of the celery leaves, save the rest for other uses¿they are great in salads.
- Put the celery, broth, olive oil, garlic, celery seeds, and thyme in a medium skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Bring the liquid to a boil over high heat, and then adjust the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Place a circle of parchment paper directly on the vegetables or set a lid slightly ajar on the skillet. Cook until the celery is tender but not mushy, about 15 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a serving dish, and reduce the cooking liquid to a saucy glaze. Remove the thyme sprig, and pour the cooking liquid over the celery, sprinkle with the cheese, and serve.

Steps:
- Trim the tops of the celery and separate the stalks. Lightly peel the stalks to remove the strings. Cut the stalks into lengths of about 3 inches. Drop into 2 to 3 quarts of rapidly boiling water and, 2 minutes after the water returns to a boil, drain and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Put the onion in a saucepan with the butter and sauté over medium heat until translucent but not browned. Add the pancetta, stir and sauté for about 1 minute. Add the celery, a light sprinkling of salt and pepper and sauté for 5 minutes, turning the celery from time to time.
- Add the broth, cover the pan and cook at a gentle simmer until the celery is tender at the pricking of a fork.
- Arrange the cooked celery in a baking dish with the inner sides of the stalks facing up. Spoon the sautéed onion and pancetta over the celery, then add the grated cheese. Place the dish on the uppermost rack of the oven and bake for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the cheese has formed a slight crust. Allow to settle for a few minutes, then serve.
