Celery seeds are the dried fruits of the wild celery plant, which is sometimes called ‘smallage’ or ‘lovage.’ They have a warm, slightly bitter, aromatic flavor that is similar to celery stalks. Celery seeds are used as a spice to bring flavor to a variety of dishes, from sauces and soups to salads and dressings.

Celery seeds are also a good source of nutrients, including fiber, protein, and vitamins and minerals, such as potassium, magnesium, and iron. They also contain antioxidants, which can help protect the body from damage caused by free radicals.
