Best Celery Substitutes
When using fennel, it is best to already be familiar with the flavor (both raw and cooked) before using it as a celery substitute. If you know that you enjoy fennel's licorice taste, go right ahead and use it in an equal 1:1 ratio.
Use half the amount of celeriac when substituting for celery. Add more to taste.
Bok choy can be used in an equal 1:1 ratio for celery in any recipe.
Easiest Celery Substitute
When you're using carrots in combination with celery anyway, you can simply increase the amount of carrot in your recipe to make up for the missing celery.
