Estimated, not verified. These numbers are calculated from typical ingredient data and haven't been checked against a lab or your brands. Check the labels of what you buy and confirm anything that matters to you, especially sodium, sugar and allergens.
* % Daily Value shows how much one serving adds to a 2,000-calorie day. † Net carbs is not on US labels; it is total carbs minus fiber, allulose, erythritol and half of other sugar alcohols. "To taste" amounts are counted as written. Counted items (eggs, cloves, spoons) use the rounded amount shown in the ingredient list. Vitamins and minerals are from raw ingredients; cooking lowers some, especially vitamin C and folate. How this is calculated.
Steps
Rinse the celery. Trim the ends and cut each stalk into 3 pieces about 8 cm (3 in) long.
Pat the pieces dry with a towel, especially the groove.
Done looks like: No water beads in the groove. Spread peanut butter into the groove of each piece with a butter knife or small spoon.
Press 2–3 raspberries into the peanut butter on each piece.
Equipment
Chef's knife, 20 cm (8 in) $15–50
What to look for
- Comfortable handle that does not slip when wet
- Blade you can sharpen, or a cheap one you replace every few years
Skip: Knife blocks with 12 knives. A chef's knife and a small paring knife cover almost everything.
Cutting board $10–30
What to look for
- At least 30 × 40 cm (12 × 16 in), so food stays on it
- Wood or plastic; plastic goes in the dishwasher
Skip: Glass or stone boards. They dull knives fast.
What goes wrong
| What | Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Stringy, hard to chew | Outer stalks have tough strings along the back. | Run a vegetable peeler once down the rounded back of each stalk. |
| Peanut butter won't stay in | Wet celery. | Dry the grooves well before filling. |
