Braised celery from Jubilee: Recipes from Two Centuries of African-American Cooking (page 188) by Toni Tipton-Martin

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute olive oil for meat drippings.

    I've never seen celery as a featured ingredient in a cooked dish before. This was delicious (we used a good green celery with lots of crunch and some flavor)

    The celery becomes a wonderfully comforting and savory accompaniment to any roasted protein, my daughter described it as "like chicken soup on a plate". While this recipe is great as-is, I would also consider finishing the dish with preserved lemon, or with a squeeze of lemon and capers to give it a bit of acidity.
