Thank you Netgalley for an advanced copy.

I loved this book & fully intend to buy the hard copy when released. Its easy to read, informative & while I've only tried a few reipies they are delisious.

Was this review helpful?

This is a very clear, informative and beautiful little book. I have already tried a few of the juices and found them very easy to make and delsh! As someone that juices celery every day, its nice to get lots of ideas of how to mix it up a bit with juices and smoothies. The book has beautiful pictures of all the receipes so it gives you a good visual idea of what they will look like when made.

This is a book that I will definitely be buying in hardback when it is published and also one that will be gifted to others.

Highly recommended to all celery juicers and anyone looking to make the healthy move to juicing but not sure what to put together.

Thank you Quarto Publishing Group and NetGalley.

The Celery Juice Book is a recipe collection for using celery and its juice in diverse ways from straight juice to smoothies and more traditional soups and stews. Due out 24th Dec 2019 from Quarto on their Chartwell imprint, it's 160 pages and will be available in hardcover format.

There is undoubtedly a lot of good advice in upping our intake of raw and unprocessed foods. More solid nutrients, fewer empty calories, fewer bad choices ... all of those are good for us. This book (and author) are very enthusiastic, zealous even, proponents of every kind of green smoothie you can think of. This book concentrates on celery of course, but it doesn't just have a feature role in the recipes here. There are smoothies including fruit, other vegetables, nut milks and other interesting ingredients. The recipes run the gamut from straight juices to more complex main dishes and there's even a recipe for dog treats included.

The recipes we tried all tasted 'healthy and good for you'. There weren't any gooey, cheesy, comfort food type recipes. For readers looking for those, this book won't be a good fit. On the other hand, there really were a lot of recipes which will appeal to readers already following a plant based diet who are really making an earnest effort to improve their food choices and who are maybe following a special diet (like anti-inflammatory, gluten free, etc). Not -all- of the recipes will fit into a special diet, but there are a number which are potentially useful, but none of them are marked as AIP or other diet compliant, so readers will have to be aware and check their protocol lists.

Each of the recipes includes an introductory description, ingredients listed in a bullet point sidebar (US measurements given, with metric in parentheses), and step by step instructions. There is no nutritional info provided. The recipes are all photographed very well and clearly. Serving suggestions are attractive and appropriate.

The recipe ingredients themselves are easily sourced and will be available at most well stocked grocery stores. I was amused to see a whole chapter dedicated to cocktails including celery in one form or another. I'm not sure how easily dirty celery martinis and celery juice mojitos will catch on, but solid points for trying.

Four stars for the celery fans out there.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an advance of this title in exchange for my honest review. We'd recently been looking at celery for its anti-inflammatory properties, and this book was timely because we'd just gotten a juicer. This book was clear and informative. We really enjoyed it.

I have become a huge proponent of juicing and smoothies but have found it harder to incorporate veggies due to either flavor or texture. I had started using a lot of carrots and celery because they blend in perfectly with most everththing. However, I didnt really have any actual recipes. This book has tons of easy and delicious juice/smoothie recipes some of which are specifically targeting certain things like anti-stress or headache relief. I really like these recipe I've been able to greatly increase vegetables into my smoothies and juices and I now have some go too recipes. I received this book from NetGalley for an honest review.

Thank you NetGalley for a copy of The Celery Juice Book inexchange for an honest review.

I liked Melissa Petitto's celery centric cookbook; it contains a variety of celery based juices, smoothies, meals and even cocktails. The juices and smoothie recipes were a little basic for but good for new juicers and smoothie makers. I enjoyed the cocktail and recipes much more. Many recipes used the juice pulp which I loved since I don't like wasting the nutrient rich left overs after juicing. Each recipe has a detailed ingredient list, very easy instructions and include vibrate eye catching photographs. This is a nice addition to my healthy cookbook collection.

I love celery in my juices. I used to have a juicer back home in Puerto Rico and many of my recipes relied on celery. My juicer was a relatively cheap Jack Lalane juicer that I bought at Costco, but after reading this book (and another I reviewed earlier today.) I realize how much I have missed juicing and have invested in a Breville Big Squeeze so that I may prepare the concoctions featured among these pages.
