2 reasons not to throw away your celery leaves

Posted on 30 October 202030 October 2020 by Claire Samuel

You know that celery is good for you. Celery juice is amazing and I love it too. However, to make celery juice, we use the stems, but not the leaves otherwise it would be undrinkable. So what to do with these large bushy leaves my friend my sister?

First, you can consume these leaves in a juice but with apples to sweeten it. I add lemon, ginger and turmeric.

Then, the celery leaves are delicious thinly sliced in a salad because they provide sodium and enhance the taste. No need to use extra salt afterwards.

Some people use celery leaves in the dehydrator. Reduced to powder, it can then be used as a condiment.

And you my friend my sister, what do you do with your celery leaves?

A pretty salad for a beautiful autumn

Posted on 16 October 202014 October 2020 by Claire Samuel

To celebrate fall, let’s create a simple salad of grated/shredded zucchini, turnips, apple, parsley and onion (I used an S-blade mixer) with a lime, tamari and coconut oil dressing.

Personally, I am really drawn to the sun and summer heat. Yet I am aware of the importance of the seasons my friend my sister. Fall season invites us to reconnect within, to reflect, to meditate. Slowly, we put our bodies in a slower motion for the upcoming winter. This period of focusing within is necessary in order to be ready to expand again in the spring.

Celery juice

What a pleasure to finally be able to make celery juice with the brand new Kuvings Evo 820 extractor in my modest kitchen! Celery juice is exceptional, really rich in minerals and it helps us to detox our body. Some women have managed to regain a normal female cycle thanks to celery juice, see Jenna Zoe’s testimony on this subject.

However, be careful my friend my sister because celery juice is very cooling, therefore it’s great when it’s hot, but otherwise there are other juices to be made. Thierry explained this important point very well in his video if you understand French “Le jus de céleri : une nouvelle panacée ?”.

Carrot juice

My first juice with the Kuvings juicer is carrot juice my friend my sister. My daughter liked it, my son made an effort to take a spoon of it and I found the carrot juice to be good. Since then I made other vegetable juices and I must confess that carrot juice is not my favorite.
