If you want to save the leaves, I'd dehydrate them.
The stalks can be either dehydrated (1/4" slices at 125 degrees for 6-10 hours
until leathery) or frozen. To freeze, slice or chop, spread on cookie sheets
and freeze until firm. Bag up when completely frozen and return to freezer.
Remember to label.

I have NEVER grown celery before and right now I have the most amazing celery
that I have ever seen...the leaves are huge and the stalks are so full of
flavour! I love having chopped celery for my soups and other dishes, but I need
to harvest it now before the frost comes. The storebought stalks are so
tasteless to me now.
Now...my question to all you wonderful folks is this...can I harvest and chop
the celery, portion it and freeze it without any problem? Do I just flash
freeze it like parsley? Thank you so much for all your wisdom and
insight...love the recipes, and now that my yard is getting put to bed, I can
fill up my freezers again.
