Read more ›White celery is one of the great discoveries of wellness cooking. It is a gourmet speciality perfectly adapted to new tastes, for its outstanding personality and for its lack of calories and nutritional contribution. Gastronomically, white celery is much lighter, less bitter and aniseed-flavoured than green celery.
In the kitchen it is used for fresh consumption, as an ingredient in juices, salads or as a snack to dip with sauces. It also adds a highly appreciated distinctive touch to soups, meat stews and vegetable creams.
At Peris we are white celery specialists and we market it throughout the year. Thanks to the versatility of our facilities, we offer it in different formats. White celery cultivation is very demanding and requires a lot of effort and experience to obtain clumps of firm white stalks with a mild and delicate flavour.
We mainly plant Golden, Spartan and, occasionally, Loretta variety celery during the spring-summer campaign. Celery cultivation and harvesting begins in the Valencian Community in autumn, the Murcia Region in winter and spring, and in Castilla-La Mancha in summer.
All of this in crops certified under the GlobalG.A.P. standard, both in the field and in the warehouse.
In first range (I range) it can be found in bunches with leaves, or solely in stalks, both in bags and on compostable trays. In fourth range (IV range) we offer white celery packaged and chopped, with the stalks cut or sliced. White celery can be eaten raw with a light sauce or as an ingredient in juices, salads, and also in creams or stews.
The bunches arrive from the plantation to be washed and cut. They are prepared in boxes containing between 10 and 14 clumps. It is intended for fruit sellers and large consumers.
Before being bagged, the clumps are adapted to the buyers' requirements regarding the weight and height of the stalks. This product is mainly intended for supermarkets.
This format adjusts its weight and size to the typical consumption of a family. The leaves are practically removed, leaving the whitest stalks.
Crispy pre-cut mild white celery stalks for dipping or cooking. A 4th range format to enjoy the best of celery and facilitate immediate consumption.
