- 4. TIP ********( now I love celery seed, I added DOUBLE the amount that I posted in this recipe, if you find this pasta lacking in celery taste, I suggest you add one more Tbls (at a time), of celery seed) Stir well after each additional Tbls. so you may taste your pasta, before adding more. ****** Enjoy!!!!!!!
