Celery & Carrot Blend

Ingredients

• 2 stalks celery, sliced
• 2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced

Method

1. 01

   Wash and slice 2 stalks of celery into 1-inch pieces. Peel and slice 2 medium carrots into rounds.

2. 02

   Place carrot rounds in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 4 minutes.

3. 03

   Add celery pieces and continue steaming for another 7-8 minutes until both are completely tender.

4. 04

   Transfer to a blender with 3-4 tablespoons of steaming liquid.

5. 05

   Blend on high until smooth; the celery thins the puree naturally and adds a fresh, mild flavor.

How to offer

Celery has a high water content, so no extra liquid is usually needed. Serve on a preloaded spoon or mix into other purees.

Storage

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Freeze in ice cube trays for up to 2 months.
