Interesting, I find fresh celery to have a massive flavor, very strong and makes my tongue somewhat numb if I eat a few whole sticks with no dip, similar to clove numbness. Not at all sweet or grassy, though cooking does seem to destroy whatever it is that makes my mouth numb…
I like celery and all, but I’m apparently getting a different experience of it…
I think it just depends on how fresh it is. I’ve had that intense flavour before but out here it seems to be harvested younger, less woodsy and earthy.
