The Bold, Savory Punch of Spiceology Celery Seed

Spiceology’s Celery Seed is a chef-loved spice that delivers concentrated celery flavor far stronger than conventional celery found in the produce aisle. Harvested from the wild celery plant, these tiny whole seeds carry a naturally savory, slightly bitter flavor that adds vibrant depth to countless dishes and recipes. Unlike celery stalks or celery leaves, which offer mild, green notes, the celery seed spice—taken from the celery plant’s flowering tops—brings a bold, herbal complexity that transforms soups, salads, stews, and pickling recipes alike.


Whether you’re using whole celery seed in a brine or pickles, or grinding it for ground celery seed just before cooking, this essential ingredient delivers a clean, robust taste and unmistakable aroma. The whole seeds retain their natural oils for long-simmering soups and stews, while the ground seeds release instant flavor in spice blends, dressings, and sauces. You can even use ground celery to make your own celery salt, celery powder, or DIY spice mixtures—a great way to bring fresh, tasty, and savory flavor to any food.


A pantry staple in the spice aisle, Spiceology Celery Seed adds a distinctive pop to potato salad, egg salad, coleslaw, and tomato-based dishes like pasta sauces or vegetable dishes with tomatoes and herbs. Pair it with dill seed, basil, or vinegar for pickling recipes, or mix it into a creamy slaw recipe for balanced, savory flavor. This celery seed spice also works beautifully in dry rubs for meat, fish, or poultry, and can substitute for celery flakes, extract, or powder when fresh celery isn’t on hand.


For chefs experimenting with flavor combinations, a touch of ground celery seed can add celery seeds’ earthy brightness to spice blends or seasoning mixtures without altering texture. Each jar is packed for freshness and convenience, offering great value and long shelf life. Whether you use it whole or ground, Spiceology Celery Seed is the secret to adding bold, savory flavor and depth to every dish—a small seed with a big impact.


Whole seeds retain oils longer, making them ideal for pickling recipes, brining, and cooking methods that require longer cook times. Ground celery seed releases flavor instantly—great for rubs, dressings, and sauces where texture isn't needed.
Yes. When you're out of celery stalks, celery seed is a powerful substitute. One teaspoon of whole celery seed delivers the celery flavor of several stalks. You can also try celery powder or celery flakes, but adjust the amount since the nutrients, texture, and taste will vary.
No. While both are used in pickling recipes and can look similar, dill seed and celery seed come from different plants. Celery seed has a more bitter flavor and earthy tone, while dill seed leans aromatic and caraway-like.

People with birch pollen allergies or those prone to uterine bleeding should consult a doctor before consuming large amounts of celery seed. It’s also advised that pregnant women limit high intake.

Store your celery seed (whole or ground) in an airtight jar, away from direct light and heat. Whole seeds can stay fresh for up to three years, while ground seeds last about six months to a year. No paper towel or parchment paper needed—just cool, dark storage.
